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

Organic films containing unsaturated lipids are widespread, yet their oxidation pathways with associated impacts on contaminant lifetimes and human exposure remain poorly explored under indoor environmental conditions. This study demonstrates that UVA radiation and radical exposure drive rapid autoxidation of thin films of methyl linolenate (ML) and canola oil (which contains polyunsaturated triglycerides), primarily producing organic hydroperoxides. For ML films this fast chemistry occurs at the same rate under entirely dark, genuine indoor conditions as it does when the films are exposed to significantly higher
