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

aimA rapid and sensitive ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for epalrestat detection in human plasma. MATERIALS AND

methodsA triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source was used to quantify epalrestat and the internal standard epalrestat-d RESULTS AND

conclusionThe retention time of epalrestat was 0.92 min and the entire run time was only 2.00 min. The calibration curve was linear in the range 10.0-8.00 × 10
