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

Subduction of carbon rich sediments and crust at convergent plate boundaries exerts a crucial control on Earth's mantle chemistry and surface habitability. Recent attention has focused on exposures of fully-carbonated mantle rocks as these may attest to an overlooked sink for subducted carbon not sampled by arc volcanism. However, even in the best-studied example, the Semail Ophiolite, Oman, the setting for carbonation remains highly contentious, with conflicting inferences from geochemistry and geochronology. We approach this problem by combining microanalysis of halogens and detailed petrography to fingerprint the origins of carbonating fluids. Fluids were derived from both sedimentary pore fluid expulsion and deep slab decarbonation reactions in a subduction zone setting. Through mass balance modelling we show that CO
