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

We demonstrate the suitability of a fast, green, easy-to-perform, and modified sample extraction procedure, i.e., dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) for the determination of efavirenz (EFV) in human plasma. Data acquisition was done by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in the selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. The simplicity of the method lies in, among others, the avoidance of the use of large organic solvent volumes as mobile phases and non-volatile buffers that tend to block the plumbing in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Chromatographic and mass spectral parameters were optimized using bovine whole blood for matrix matching due to insufficient human plasma. Method validation was accomplished using the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) 2018 guidelines. The calibration curve was linear with a dynamic range of 0.10-2.0 μg/mL and an R
