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

Methanol poisoning can occur through consumption of methanol-containing alcohols, especially in areas where production, distribution, sale and consumption of alcohol is lawfully prohibited. Due to its toxic potency, determination of methanol in alcoholic solutions is important. The aim of the present study was to develop a rapid, simple and inexpensive method for quantification of methanol in alcoholic solutions that uses minimal equipment available in most laboratories. The method developed is based microdistillation and chromotropic acid, which can be conducted without sophisticated instruments or personal. The system consists of a micro-tube suspended in a falcon tube to function as a collector. Methanol is separated from wine by microdistillation at 90°C in water bath and converted to formaldehyde in the collector. The collector contains an acidic permanganate solution that converts methanol to formaldehyde. Formaldehyde was then quantified by use of chromotropic acid in concentrated sulfuric acid. Experimental variables were optimized by using central composite design (CCD). Method detection and quantification limits were 183 mg L
