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

3D electron crystallography has emerged as a method with great potential for the structure determination of small molecules and macromolecules complementing traditional single-crystal X-ray crystallography and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). It offers the unique capability of determining the structures of small molecules and macromolecules from micro- and nanocrystals. In this study, using 3D electron diffraction (3D ED), we determined the single-crystal structure of commercially sourced arginine directly from its bottle. The 3D ED analysis of micro-sized single crystals identified two distinct forms: the L-arginine enantiomer and the racemic mixture DL-arginine. At the time of writing, neither the Cambridge Structural Database nor the Crystallographic Open Database contain a single-crystal structure of isolated L-arginine (sum formula C
