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

Breath analysis with secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) is a sensitive method for breath metabolomics. To enable quantitative assessments using SESI-MS, a system was developed to introduce controlled amounts of gases into breath samples and carry out standard addition experiments. The system combines gas standard generation through controlled evaporation, humidification, breath dilution, and standard injection with the help of mass-flow controllers. The system can also dilute breath, which affects the signal of the detected components. This response can be used to filter out contaminating compounds in an untargeted metabolomics workflow. The system's quantitative capabilities have been shown through standard addition of pyridine and butyric acid into breath in real time. This system can improve the quality and robustness of breath data.
