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

Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC) offers unrivaled separation of petroleum substances, which can contain thousands of constituents or more. However, interpreting substance compositions from GCxGC data is costly and requires expertise. To facilitate environmental risk assessments, industries provide aggregated compositional information known as "hydrocarbon blocks" (HCBs), but these proprietary methods do not transparently associate the HCBs with GCxGC chromatogram data. These obstacles frustrate efforts to study the environmental risks of petroleum substances and associated environmental samples. To address this problem, we developed a GCxGC elution model for user-defined petroleum substance compositions. We calibrated the elution model to experimental GCxGC retention times of 56 known hydrocarbons by fitting three tunable model parameters to two candidate instrument methods. With the calibrated model, we simulated retention times for a library of 15,447-15,455 hydrocarbon structures (plus 40-48 predicted as chromatographically unretained) spanning 11 classes of petroleum substance constituents in the C
