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

There is growing interest in the fate and effects of transformation products generated from emerging pollutant classes, and new tools that help predict the products most likely to form will aid in risk assessment. Here, using a family of structurally related steroids (enones, dienones, and trienones), we evaluate the use of density functional theory to help predict products from reaction with chlorine, a common chemical disinfectant. For steroidal dienones (e.g., dienogest) and trienones (e.g., 17β-trenbolone), computational data support that reactions proceed through spontaneous C4 chlorination to yield 4-chloro derivatives for trienones and, after further reaction, 9,10-epoxide structures for dienones. For testosterone, a simple steroidal enone, in silico predictions suggest that C4 chlorination is still most likely, but slow at environmentally relevant conditions. Predictions were then assessed through laboratory chlorination reactions (0.5-5 mg Cl
