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

The growing demand have made researchers look into algae-based biodiesel, which is precisely a type of algae called Botryococcus braunii, as an alternate to sustainable fuel source. The feature of this alga is that it has high oil content and is determined as user friendly. The study made an attempt to explore the effectiveness and efficiency of adding hydrogen with Botryococcus braunii at 2 different rates, viz., 4LPM and 8LPM respectively in a Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDI) diesel engine and compared its performance with the pure diesel. This assessment approach of testing hydrogen (H
