Actinide Elemental Ratios of Spent Nuclear Fuel Samples by Resonance Ionization Mass Spectrometry.

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
While resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) has demonstrated utility in measuring isotopic compositions of elements in complex matrices without the need for chemical separation to remove isobaric interferences, it has had limited application in measuring elemental compositions. The ability to determine elemental compositions via an in situ method like RIMS would be an exceptional asset in spent nuclear fuel analysis, where they are important in assessing reactor histories and whose chemical separation presents a radiological hazard. However, quantitative elemental analysis by RIMS requires special considerations because each element is ionized by its own set of lasers tuned to element specific resonant ionization wavelengths. We present the first comprehensive study of measuring elemental ratios by RIMS in spent nuclear fuel. All actinides produced by neutron capture are enhanced significantly radially from the center to the edge of a fuel pellet. This edge effect is not readily accessible by conventional bulk measurements.
