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

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are synthetic compounds widely employed in society due to their chemical inertness. These substances accumulate in the environment, from where they enter human bodies, leading to harmful effects like cancer. PFAS exhibit omniphobic properties, which often cause them to separate from both aqueous and organic phases, forming a fluorous phase. Yet, the physical nature of this fluorous effect is unknown. Here, we shed light on the fluorous effect by analyzing the infrared absorption spectra of perfluorinated and semifluorinated alkanes in various solvents. We find that specific bands in the C-F stretching vibrational region exhibit selective behaviors in fluorous and nonfluorous environments. In a fluorous environment, these bands undergo significant broadening, and the asymmetric CF
