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 rapid emergence of new psychoactive substances (NPS) and their extensive biotransformation challenge the reliability and interpretability of chemical measurements in forensic toxicology. Targeted analytical workflows offer high selectivity but frequently fail when parent compounds are present at low concentrations or are absent from biological matrices, limiting metabolite coverage and evidential interpretation. In this study, an untargeted LC-HRMS measurement and data-analysis framework was evaluated to improve metabolite annotation and structural contextualization in complex forensic samples. Blood and urine collected from a suspected driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) case were analyzed using high-resolution full-scan and data-dependent MS/MS acquisition as a representative test system. Data were processed in Compound Discoverer using a customized workflow combining spectral library matching (
