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

This study presents a methodology for sampling, preserving, and analyzing 15 organophosphate esters (OPEs), 11 phthalate esters (PEs), and 6 alternative plasticizers (APs) in indoor air. Accurate quantification is essential, given their widespread use in household items and adverse health effects associated with exposure. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges, collecting both gaseous and particulate phases, connected to a low-volume pump were used for the collection of air samples. Stability tests confirm that storing samples at 4 °C is most optimal to maintain analyte integrity for at least 2 weeks. The analytes were extracted and then purified online using turbulent flow chromatography, before analysis via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (TFC-LC-MS/MS). Quantification was carried out by applying the isotopic dilution method with labelled standards. Recoveries ranged from 50 to 136%, with reproducibility below 21%. The relative standard deviation (RSD) varied from 2 to 31%, only exceeding the 20% threshold for certain OPEs at lower concentrations. Limits of detection (mLODs) varied between 0.02-0.89 ng/m
