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
The scattering and transport processes of electrons with initial kinetic energies ranging from 0.2 eV to 10 keV in liquid-phase water are studied using a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. This study aims to identify a set of scattering cross sections and physical assumptions regarding angular deflection and energy loss that ensure computational results align with available data across the entire energy range of interest. These data include thermalization distances derived from photoinjection measurements in the very low energy regime (<2.5 eV) and theoretical approximations, including continuously slowing down approximation (CSDA) values, up to 10 keV. In particular, incorporating an assumption for track termination events-such as transient negative anion (TNA) formation at resonance peaks followed by dissociative electron attachment (DEA) processes-may resolve the longstanding discrepancy in geminate separation distance of secondary electrons, which has been reported to vary over the rather broad range of 6-14 nm. This discrepancy arises between stochastic models fitted to diffusive spur recombination data from radiolysis measurements and those directly calculated using MC track simulations with measured scattering cross sections. By accounting for secondary electron tracks and electron autodetachment (EAD) from TNA states, as well as autoionization of neutral excited water molecules, the model also reproduces the reported
