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

Amorphous carbonates, in their liquid and solid (glassy) forms, have been identified to play important roles in biomineralization, volcanism, and deep element cycling. Anhydrous amorphous calcium and calcium-magnesium carbonate (ACC and ACMC05, respectively) are structural glasses that exhibit a glass transition upon being heated. We report a significant effect of the water content on glass formation. The results yield a parametrization enabling prediction of the stability of their liquid and solid amorphous phases as a function of temperature and water content. These results, obtained through novel fast differential scanning calorimetry, demonstrate that hydrous ACC and ACMC05 do indeed exhibit the behavior of structural glasses and that dehydration of these materials by lyophilization is a route that can be used to isothermally cross the glass transition. This work presents a viable process for a significantly wider range of geo- and biomaterials. Dehydration-controlled formation of glassy ACC therefore constitutes the missing link in the transformation from supersaturated aqueous solutions through an intermediate amorphous glassy state to crystalline CaCO
