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

Catechol is an important biomass-burning phenolic compound and a precursor of secondary organic aerosol. This work reports the molecular products generated during heterogeneous oxidation of catechol thin films by nitrate radicals under dry conditions. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-visible spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) were used to characterize condensed-phase products and light-absorbing chromophores. FTIR spectra showed the appearance of nitroaromatic absorptions near 1590 and 1350 cm
