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 conversion of syngas into value-added hydrocarbons gains increasing attention due to its potential to produce sustainable platform chemicals from simple starting materials. Along this line, the "OX-ZEO" process that combines a methanol synthesis catalyst with a zeolite, capable of catalyzing the methanol-to-hydrocarbon reaction, was found to be a suitable alternative to the classical Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. Hitherto, understanding the mechanism of the OX-ZEO process and simultaneously optimizing the CO conversion and the selectivity toward a specific hydrocarbon remains challenging. Herein, we present a comparison of a variety of ZnCrAl oxides with different metal ratios combined with a H-ZSM-5 zeolite for the conversion of syngas to hydrocarbons. The effect of aluminum on the catalytic activity was investigated for ZnCrAl oxides with a Zn/Cr ratio of 4:1, 1:1, and 1:2. The product distribution and CO conversion were found to be strongly influenced by the Zn/Cr/Al ratio. Although a ratio of Zn/Cr of 1:2 was best to produce lower olefins and aromatics, with aromatic selectivities of up to 37%, catalysts with a 4:1 ratio revealed high paraffin selectivity up to 52%. Notably, a distinct effect of aluminum in the oxide lattice on the catalytic activity and product selectivity was observed, as a higher Al content leads to a lower CO conversion and a changed product spectrum. We provide additional understanding of the influence of different compositions of ZnCrAl oxides on their surface properties and the catalytic activity in the OX-ZEO process. Furthermore, the variation of the zeolite component supports the important role of the channel topology of the porous support material for the hydrocarbon production. In addition, variation of the gas hourly space velocity showed a correlation of contact time, CO conversion, and hydrocarbon selectivity. At a gas hourly space velocity of 4200 mL/g
