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
Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) represents a major component of urban air pollution. This study presents observational evidence from summer 2017 in urban Beijing, supported by model simulations and a case study from summer 2023, demonstrating the crucial role of nighttime organic nitrates (ONs) production in subsequent daytime SOA formation. Our measurements revealed that total reactive nitrogen compound (NO
