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
Ion mobility (IM) enhances liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry identification capabilities by providing an additional dimension that improves peak capacity, mass detection, and sensitivity, being particularly valuable for untargeted analysis. However, the high dimensionality and large amount of information in the datasets obtained in this type of analysis are a big challenge for data processing, slowing its broader application and potential. The regions of interest multivariate curve resolution (ROIMCR) is a chemometrics approach based on the bilinear model intrinsic structure of the data. It represents an effective strategy for efficient feature extraction, deconvolution, and resolution of overlapping signals in complex datasets without losing relevant information and maintaining instrumental mass accuracy. In this work, the application of ROIMCR is shown for the first time for liquid chromatography ion mobility mass spectrometry (LC-IM-MS) in data-dependent acquisition (DDA) mode, including MS1 and MS2 datasets for the analysis of plastic additives. An improvement in the discrimination of isomeric species and minimization of interferences was shown by working with mobility profiles. IM-MS data from five microsphere standards and three polyethylene (PE) plastic leachates, containing complex mixtures of unknown additives, were analyzed and resolved, and collision cross-section (CCS) values were calculated for each component. Using ROIMCR, 14 different plastic additives, including phthalates, siloxanes, and phosphates, present in the original PE polymers, were identified. Our findings highlight that ROIMCR provides an effective and scalable tool for resolving complex IM datasets and enhancing the identification of potential additives associated with microplastics.
