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

Space weathering causes physical and spectral changes on the surfaces of airless bodies. However, our understanding of how space weathering operates in the presence of volatile ices is in its early stages. Electron irradiation of ice-coated surfaces is expected in astrophysical environments including the early solar system, volatile ice-rich permanently shadowed regions of the Moon and Mercury, and other airless bodies like asteroids. A recent study suggests that anomalous oxygen isotope exchange occurs between water-ice and underlying surfaces when exposed to electron irradiation at extremely low temperatures (10 K). To delve deeper into the physical processes underlying isotopic exchange, we employ nanoscale atomic force microscopy-based infrared (AFM-IR) spectroscopy to identify Si-O bond formation resulting from the electron irradiation of H
