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

Using a molecular beam (MB)-based approach with time-of-flight mass spectra (TOFMS) product detection, we have effected pyrolysis of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene/ammonium perchlorate (HTPB/AP) mixtures under conditions relevant to solid fuel rocket motor operation - pyrolysis temperatures >1000 °C with chemistry occurring on μs time scales. In earlier studies, it was implicitly assumed that AP did not significantly affect HTPB pyrolysis chemistry, that it was a featureless oxidant that also raised pyrolysis temperatures. This appears not to be the case. For HTPB pyrolysis in the presence of AP, a series of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) products were detected up to
