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
This study investigates the impact of 1 MeV electron beam and 80 keV X-ray irradiation on the decomposition rate and radiation-chemical yield of 1-hexanol in aqueous saline solution to develop a comprehensive approach to determining reliable volatile organic compound markers for food irradiation. A 50 mg/L 1-hexanol solution was irradiated with the doses ranging from 100 to 8000 Gy at various dose rates ranging from 0.2 to 10 Gy/s to assess the impact of irradiation parameters on the decomposition rate and radiation-chemical yield of volatile compounds typically found in food. GC-MS analysis revealed a non-linear decrease in 1-hexanol concentration with increasing dose, accompanied by the formation of aldehydes, ketones, and secondary alcohols. Among these products, hexanal was detected at the lowest applied dose and exhibited dose-dependent behavior that correlated strongly with 1-hexanol degradation. Density functional theory calculations identified the most probable pathways for the formation of hexanol decomposition products, involving direct ionization, radical reactions, and oxidation. A mathematical model proposed in the study describes dose-dependent transformations of 1-hexanol into hexanal, enabling quantitative estimation of the degradation extent of hexanol. The findings suggest that hexanal can serve as a quantitative marker for hexanol degradation, supporting the development of rapid "dose range" determination methods for food irradiation that ensure microbial safety while minimizing undesirable oxidation of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
