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
An improved QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, safe) method, combined with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS), was used to determine bongkrekic acid (BA) in tremella and auricularia auricular. BA is a fat-soluble, fatal bacterial toxin produced by the aerobic gram-negative bacteria Burkholderia gladioli pathovar cocovenenans. Tremella and auricularia auricular, which have rich nutritional values, are traditional edible fungi in China that are very popular among Chinese consumers. However, tremella and auricularia auricular are easily contaminated by BA during storage and foaming, and this poses a great threat to food safety and human health. Therefore, establishing a rapid and efficient analysis method for detecting BA in tremella and auricularia auricular is of considerable significance. However, the BA concentration in the actual sample is very low, and the matrices of tremella fuciformis and auricularia auricular are very complex. Thus, it is necessary to employ appropriate sample pretreatment technology to extract and purify BA from tremella and auricularia auricular samples prior to instrumental analysis. In this study, the QuEChERS method, combined with UHPLC-MS/MS, was used to detect BA in tremella and auricularia auricular. The key parameters, such as extraction solvent, extraction method, and adsorbent used for cleanup, were optimized to obtain high extraction efficiency. The content of acetic acid in the extraction solution strongly influenced the extraction efficiency of BA, and acetonitrile with 5%(v/v) acetic acid was determined to be the optimum extraction solvent. After salting out, the acetonitrile extract was purified by dispersive solid phase extraction using 200 mg C18 as a cleanup adsorbent. The sample was then separated on a Waters HSS T3 column (100 mm×2.1 mm, 1.8 μm), using a water solution containing 0.01% (v/v) formic acid and 0.05% (v/v) ammonia and methanol as mobile phases. MS analysis was performed using an electrospray ionization source in the negative and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) modes. Under the optimized conditions, the matrix effects of UHPLC-MS/MS in tremella and auricularia auricular were -6.3% and -11.5%, respectively; this indicated that the method had a significant purification effect, and the sample matrix did not affect the MS detection of BA. Further study showed that in the concentration range of 1-200 μg/L, the square of the regression coefficient of the linear equation (
