Low-density preference of the ambient and high-pressure polymorphs of DL-menthol.
Article in IUCrJ, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Lower-density polymorphs of DL-menthol were nucleated and crystallized in their high-pressure stability regions. Up to 0.30 GPa, the triclinic DL-menthol polymorph α, which is stable at atmospheric pressure, is less dense than a new β polymorph, which becomes stable above 0.40 GPa, but is less dense than the α polymorph at this pressure. The compression of polymorph α to at least 3.37 GPa is monotonic, with no signs of phase transitions. However, recrystallizations of DL-menthol above 0.40 GPa yield the β polymorph, which is less compressible and becomes less dense than α-DL-menthol. At 0.10 MPa, the melting point of the β polymorph is 14°C, much lower compared with those of α-DL-menthol (42-43°C) and L-menthol (36-38°C). The structures of both DL-menthol polymorphs α and β are very similar with respect to the lattice dimensions, the aggregation of OH...O molecules bonded into C
