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
Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and potassium competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) are widely used to treat acid-related diseases (ARDs). Precisely quantifying their plasma levels is crucial for clinical pharmacokinetic assessments and therapeutic drug monitoring. Aim: This study aimed to establish a generic and efficient ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) assay for the determination of five PPIs (esomeprazole, rabeprazole, ilaprazole, lansoprazole, and pantoprazole) and the P-CAB (vonoprazan) in human plasma. Methods: The six analytes were extracted from human plasma via protein precipitation and a single dilution step. Detection was performed on a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer with positive electrospray ionization. Chromatographic separation was achieved on the ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 × 50 mm, 1.7 µm) using gradient elution. The mobile elution was composed of 0.2% formic acid in acetonitrile (mobile phase A), 0.1% ammonium hydroxide and 10 mmol/L ammonium formate in deionized water (mobile phase B). The flow rate was 0.4 mL/min, the run time was 4.5 minutes, and the injection volume was 20 µL. Results & Conclusions: The method exhibited excellent linearity across the ranges of 0.2-200 ng/mL for PPIs and 0.5-500 ng/mL for the P-CAB. Both intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy were within the acceptance criteria, with precision ranging from 1.1% to 14.6% and accuracy ranging from 0.0% to 14.7%. Extraction recoveries were consistent, ranging from 88.1% to 96.7%, with no significant matrix effects observed. The stability of the six analytes under diverse storage and processing conditions was also confirmed, with both precision and accuracy falling within the acceptable range of 15%. The UPLC-MS/MS assay provided an efficient and reliable approach for the simultaneous determination of six acid-suppressing medications in a single analytical run. It has been successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic studies of PPIs and P-CABs, offering a valuable tool for clinical research and therapeutic drug monitoring.
