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

Accurate and rapid detection of hydrogen and hydrocarbons is critical for safety and efficiency in modern energy, industrial, and environmental systems. However, selective and simultaneous quantification of these species remains a significant technical challenge. Here, we introduce conductance-photoacoustic spectroscopy (ConPAS), an integrated sensing approach that combines conductance-based resonance modulation with quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy in a single device. By bridging a quartz tuning fork (QTF) with a catalytic platinum microwire, ConPAS enables concurrent extraction of hydrogen and hydrocarbon concentrations from a unified electrical signal: hydrogen is quantified by frequency analysis, while hydrocarbon content is determined by amplitude analysis simultaneously. Experiments demonstrate minimum detection limits of 0.69 % for hydrogen, 40.26 ppm for propane, and 133.7 ppm for methane, with millisecond response time and excellent linearity (R² > 0.99). The modular architecture allows flexible adaptation to other analytes via material substitution, offering a scalable and versatile solution for simultaneous, multi-component gas sensing. This work establishes ConPAS as a powerful, calibration-compatible platform for integrated gas analysis in hydrogen-enriched environments, with broad implications for safety monitoring, process control, and advanced energy applications.
