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

With the growing global challenge of drug abuse, there is an urgent need for rapid, accurate, and cost-effective drug detection methods. This study introduces an innovative approach to drug abuse screening by quickly detecting ephedrine (EPH) in tears using drop coating deposition-surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (DCD-SERS) combined with machine learning (ML). Using ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS), the average concentration of EPH in tear fluid of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, measured over 3 h post-injection, was 1235 ng/mL. DCD-SERS effectively identified EPH in tear samples, with distinct Raman peaks observed at 1001 cm
