The NIST Vacuum Double-Crystal Spectrometer: A Tool for SI-Traceable Measurement of X-Ray Emission Spectra.

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 NIST Vacuum Double-Crystal Spectrometer (VDCS) has been modernized and is now capable of recording reference-free wavelength-dispersive spectra in the 2 keV to 12 keV x-ray energy range. The VDCS employs crystals in which the lattice spacings are traceable to the definition of the meter through x-ray optical interferometry with a relative uncertainty ﹤10-⁸. VDCS wavelength determination relies upon precision angle difference measurements for which the encoders of the rotation stages have been calibrated using the circle closure method for accurate, absolute angle measurement. The new vacuum-compatible area detector allows quantification of the aberration functions contributing to the observed line shape and in situ alignment of the crystal optics. This latter procedure is augmented with the use of a thin lamella as the first crystal. With these new techniques, x-ray spectra are registered with the VDCS on an absolute energy scale with a relative uncertainty of 10-⁶.
