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

In recent years, the harms and abuse of synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) have attracted extensive attention in society. Their structures have been updated rapidly, which brings great challenges for continuous detection and drug identification. The aim of this study was to elucidate the metabolites of 26 kinds of abused SCs produced in human liver microsomes (HLMs) and rats and to explore the metabolism of indole amides, indazole amides, azaindoles, naphthyl indoles, cyclopropylindoles, naphthyl benzimidazole, and naphthyl pyrrole SCs in vivo and in vitro. Human liver microsomes were incubated with SCs to simulate human metabolic processes, and the in vitro metabolic model of liver microsomes was established. After the SD rats were randomized into groups, 26 kinds of SCs and normal saline were injected respectively to establish the rat model after exposure. The metabolites were identified one by one using a UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS method to explore the metabolic law. A total of 609 metabolites were identified, involving 30 metabolic pathways. The metabolism of SCs was summarized from the parent nuclear group, the head group, the linking group, and the tail side chain, and the mass spectral fragmentation pattern of the metabolites was analyzed in order to provide reference for the examination and identification of SCs-related cases.
