METLIN: A Tandem Mass Spectral Library of Standards.
Review in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 54 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Untargeted mass spectrometry metabolomics studies rely on accurate databases for the identification of metabolic features. Leveraging unique fragmentation patterns as well as characteristic dissociation routes allows for structural information to be gained for specific metabolites and molecular classes, respectively. Here we describe the evolution of METLIN as a resource for small molecule analysis as well as the tools (e.g., Fragment Similarity Search and Neutral Loss Search) used to query the database and their workflows for the identification of molecular entities. Additionally, we will discuss the functionalities of isoMETLIN, a database of isotopic metabolites, and the latest addition to the METLIN family, METLIN-MRM, which facilitates the analysis of quantitative mass spectrometry data generated with triple quadrupole instrumentation.
