Comparison of methanol fixation versus cryopreservation of the placenta for metabolomics analysis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Methods for collection of placental tissue at room temperature for metabolic profiling are described. Specimens were excised from the maternal side of the placenta and immediately flash frozen or fixed and stored for 1, 6, 12, 24, or 48 h in 80% methanol. Untargeted metabolic profiling was performed on both the methanol-fixed tissue and the methanol extract. Data were analyzed using Gaussian generalized estimating equations, two sample t-tests with false discovery rate (FDR) corrections, and principal components analysis. Methanol-fixed tissue samples and methanol extracts had a similar number of metabolites (p = 0.45, p = 0.21 in positive vs. negative ion mode). In positive ion mode, when compared to flash frozen tissue, both the methanol extract and methanol-fixed tissue (6 h) had a higher number of metabolites detected (146 additional metabolites, p
