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

The precision of the four classical techniques (Karl-Fischer titration, (thermo)gravimetric method, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopies) commonly used in the analysis of cellulose moisture absorption/desorption has been deeply investigated regarding the reproducibility of these processes. Based on multiple repeated experiments, cellulose water content values obtained with Karl-Fischer titration and (thermo)gravimetric method were plotted as a function of time. Then, the cautious peak-by-peak analysis of the absorbance and wavenumber shifts visible in IR spectra has been carried out. The collected data was described using boxplots that provided valuable information on the experimental points spread. It has been successfully proven that gravimetric methods allow for precise drawing of moisture absorption and desorption curves, while Karl-Fischer titration, ATR FT-IR and NIR techniques provide the possibility of the moisture absorption/desorption processes description by linear mathematical models (R2 >90%). Therefore, this study provides a systematic comparison between various analytical methods.
