1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The suitability of asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) coupled on-line to multi-angle light scattering (MALS) and UV diode array (UV-DAD) detectors was tested to simultaneously detect polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) and collect information about their size. A mixture of four sizes of PS-NPs at 20 nm, 60 nm, 100 nm and 200 nm was prepared by dilution with ultrapure deionized water and gentle mixing and was used as test sample for a polydisperse nanoplastic system. The AF4 method separated each single size of PS-NP mixture in a total time of 48 min by using 0.2% SDS as carrier solution. Then, the PS-NPs were sized and detected by following their MALS (90° scattering angle) and UV (215 nm) signals. Quality control (QC) performances as linearity, between-day repeatability, resolution factor, trueness/recovery, limit of detection (LoD) and selectivity were calculated, according to the ISO/TS 21362:2018. Method uncertainty was calculated following the ISO/TS 21748:2002 by summing between-day repeatability and trueness or recovery uncertainties. In-house validation results demonstrated good peak resolution and selectivity, R
