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

This work demonstrates the combination of ambient laser ablation (LA) with in-source surface-induced declustering, originally developed for rapid evaporative ionization mass spectrometry (REIMS). This combination, termed laser ablation REIMS (LA-REIMS), provides sensitivity, spatial resolution, and chemical coverage comparable to matrix-assisted laser desoprtion ionization (MALDI) but without the requirement for matrix deposition. The atmospheric pressure interface setup was subjected to detailed characterization with regard to geometric and thermal parameters augmented by in-silico flow modeling. The resulting platform was tested using aerosol formed by the infrared laser ablation of tissues. Three different laser systems were successfully employed for ambient mass spectrometric imaging: a carbon dioxide laser (λ = 10.6 μm, τ
