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

In the regulatory market, it is not uncommon for ginseng radix et rhizoma (GR) to be adulterated with panacis quinquefolii radix (PR). Amid the digital transformation, this study puts forward a new method for the identification of GR adulterated with PR. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS) was used to detect multiple batches of GR and PR to obtain mass spectrometry data. The common ions were isolated from multiple batches of GR and PR, serving as GR and PR's "ion matrices". Furthermore, GR and PR's "ion matrices" were used to eliminate intersecting ion data to extract the top-100 ions as GR and PR "matrix identity cards" (MICs). Then, GR and PR's MICs were employed as a reference for identification, yielding contrast credibility (CC) as feedback. The results indicated that leveraging the MICs of GR and PR enables efficient and precise digital identification of the two herbs: pure GR showed CC ≥ 95% when matched with GR MIC (≤2% with PR MIC), pure PR showed CC ≥ 93% with PR MIC (≤3% with GR MIC), and non-parametric analysis confirmed significant differences between groups (
