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

Direct analysis of raw matrices by Direct Analysis in Real Time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) remains limited by logistical and operational challenges, including complex handling and positioning, risks of sample degradation, and contamination of the analytical instrument. The Permeably Enclosed Raw Matrices (PERM) approach, introduced here, provides a standardized and instrument-safe strategy in which samples are confined within a semipermeable enclosure, enabling practical and reproducible analysis while preventing particulate release and moderating thermal exposure. The method was evaluated using six chemically and physically diverse matrices of forensic, toxicological, and food relevance: seized tablets, seized powders, roasted coffee, human hair, plant material, and spiked whole human blood. Across all samples, PERM-DART-HRMS delivered S/N ratios spanning four orders of magnitude (4-44 k). The approach enabled the identification of both major and low-abundance constituents - including MDMA, MDA, diazepam, lorazepam, 3-MMC, 25I-NBOMe, N-MEC, caffeine, endogenous lipids such as cholesterol, and sesquiterpenes such as dehydrocostus lactone - without extraction, solubilization, or chromatographic separation. Comparative analysis against conventional DART-HRMS workflows demonstrated effective prevention of instrumental contamination and markedly improved operational reliability and efficiency. Altogether, PERM-DART-MS provides a unified, preparation-free platform for rapid chemical screening, offering a practical and reliable alternative for multidisciplinary applications in forensic, toxicological, and food science contexts.
