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

Highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOM) play a crucial role in the formation and growth of atmospheric particles, thereby influencing air quality and climate. A comprehensive understanding of HOM formation, particularly an accurate quantification of their yields, is essential to constrain the climate and health impacts of aerosols. Previous studies often reported constant HOM yields as averages, overlooking nuanced changes. Here we revisit several experimental datasets and demonstrate that HOM yields from single volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can vary by more than a factor of 3, depending on numerous parameters affecting peroxy radicals (RO
