Beware the Artifact: Generation of Ellagic Acid and Related Species During Atmospheric Solid Analysis Probe (ASAP) Measurements of Iron Gall Inks and Tannins in the Negative Ionization Mode.
Article in Journal of mass spectrometry : JMS, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A detailed comparative analysis of the results of atmospheric solid analysis probe (ASAP) mass spectrometry of inks, tannins, and gallic acid (GA) in the negative ionization mode was performed. Results obtained for tannin by ASAP have been compared with those obtained with electrospray ionization (ESI). Apart from the GA ion, measurements frequently also yielded anions corresponding to association products and condensation products. At zero collision energy, pure GA gave a dimeric adduct (m/z 339); the formation of ions at m/z 303 and 304 was favored by increased temperatures and collision energies. In the case of inks, the subsequent dehydrogenation of such species to ellagic acid (EA) (m/z 301) was attributed to the oxidative effect of the iron III ion. On the basis of the results, a modification of the "standard ink protocol" has been suggested. Furthermore, several yet non-described breakdown products and radical ion species of GA and EA ions were identified.
