High Sensitivity Online Sensor for BTEX in Ambient Air Based on Multiphoton Electron Extraction Spectroscopy.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) are widespread volatile organic compounds commonly present in fuels and various industrial materials. Their release into the atmosphere significantly contributes to air pollution, prompting strict regulatory concentration limits in ambient air. In this work, we introduce Multiphoton Electron Extraction Spectroscopy (MEES) as an innovative technique for the sensitive, selective, and online detection and quantitation of BTEX compounds under ambient conditions. MEES employs tunable UV laser pulses to induce the resonant ionization of target molecules under a high electrical field, with subsequent measurement of the generated photocurrent. We now demonstrate the method's ability to detect BTEX in ambient air, at part-per-trillion (ppt) concentration range, providing distinct spectral signatures for each compound, including individual xylene isomers. The technique represents a significant advancement in BTEX monitoring, with potential applications in environmental sensing and industrial air quality control.
