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
The goal of the work was to investigate the possible application of factor analysis methods for processing X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) data acquired with a full-field XRF spectrometer employing a position-sensitive and energy-dispersive Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detector, which provides only limited energy resolution at a level of 18% Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) at 5.9 keV. In this article, we present the design and performance of the full-field imaging spectrometer and the results of case studies performed using the developed instrument. The XRF imaging data collected for two historical paintings are presented along with the procedures applied to data calibration and analysis. The maps of elemental distributions were built using three different analysis methods: Region of Interest (ROI), Non-Negative Matrix Factorisation (NMF), and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The results obtained for these paintings show that the factor analysis methods NMF and PCA provide significant enhancement of selectivity of the elemental analysis in case of limited energy resolution of the spectrometer.
