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

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was coupled to gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and a method optimized to quantitatively and qualitatively measure a large array of volatile metabolites in alfalfa glandular trichomes isolated from stems, trichome-free stems, and leaves as part of a non-targeted metabolomics approach. Major SPME extraction parameters optimized included SPME fiber composition, extraction temperature, and extraction time. The optimized SPME method provided the most chemically diverse coverage of alfalfa volatile and semi-volatile metabolites using a DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber, extraction temperature of 60 °C, and an extraction time of 20 min. Alfalfa SPME-GC-MS profiles were processed using automated peak deconvolution and identification (AMDIS) and quantitative data extraction software (MET-IDEA). A total of 87 trichome, 59 stem, and 99 leaf volatile metabolites were detected after background subtraction which removed contaminants present in ambient air and associated with the fibers and NaOH/EDTA buffer solution containing CaCl
