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 corrosion inhibition performance of expired citalopram (Cp) for carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl solution was systematically evaluated using chemical and electrochemical techniques. The corrosion rate decreased significantly with increasing Cp concentration, accompanied by a corresponding improvement in inhibition efficiency, which exceeded 92% at a Cp concentration of 0.005 M and a temperature of 25 °C. The inhibition mechanism was attributed to the adsorption of Cp molecules onto the carbon steel surface, following the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The adsorption equilibrium constant (K
