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
Pair distribution function (PDF) analysis based on X-ray total scattering is a powerful technique for elucidating local and medium-range structure in crystalline, nanocrystalline, and amorphous materials. Several software packages-such as GudrunX, PDFgetX2, and PDFgetX3-along with facility-specific programs developed at synchrotron sites, are widely used for this purpose. However, these tools typically require installation and environment-dependent configuration, which can introduce compatibility issues across operating systems and create conflicts with pre-installed software. To overcome these limitations, we developed a browser-based PDF analysis application implemented using Pyodide and PyScript, allowing it to run entirely in modern web browsers without additional installation. The software provides key functionalities, including Fourier transformation from S(Q) to G(r), calculation of g(r), back-Fourier transformation with cutoff handling, and sequential data processing. Demonstrations on representative samples confirm consistency with established programs. The software supports both synchrotron data and laboratory-based measurements using Ag radiation sources, underscoring its broad applicability. This tool enables environment-independent and consistent analyses, significantly enhancing the accessibility of X-ray total-scattering and PDF techniques.
