Tackling a Curious Case: Generation of Charge-Tagged Guanosine Radicals by Gas-Phase Electron Transfer and Their Characterization by UV-vis Photodissociation Action Spectroscopy and Theory.
Article in Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We report the generation of gas-phase riboguanosine radicals that were tagged at ribose with a fixed-charge 6-(trimethylammonium)hexane-1-aminocarbonyl group. The radical generation relied on electron transfer from fluoranthene anion to noncovalent dibenzocrown-ether dication complexes which formed nucleoside cation radicals upon one-electron reduction and crown-ether ligand loss. The cation radicals were characterized by collision-induced dissociation (CID), photodissociation (UVPD), and UV-vis action spectroscopy. Identification of charge-tagged guanosine radicals was challenging because of spontaneous dissociations by loss of a hydrogen atom and guanine that occurred upon storing the ions in the ion trap without further excitation. The loss of H proceeded from an exchangeable position on N-7 in guanine that was established by deuterium labeling and was the lowest energy dissociation of the guanosine radicals according to transition-state energy calculations. Rate constant measurements revealed an inverse isotope effect on the loss of either hydrogen or deuterium with rate constants
