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

The formation and stability of alkylthiol monolayers on amorphous carbon thin films are investigated. Alkylthiol monolayers were prepared via a two-step, wet chemical process in which the carbon surface was first halogenated and then incubated with (4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)methanethiol (4tBM). The 4tBM covalently attaches to the surface in a substitution reaction in which the 4tBM thiol replaces the surface halogen. Studies of the substitution mechanism showed that monolayer formation is affected by the nature of the surface-bound halogen as well as the concentration and nucleophilicity of the 4tBM sulfur atom, consistent with a bimolecular (S(N)2) substitution reaction mechanism. The alkylthiol monolayers are stable over a wide range of solvent, pH, and temperature conditions.
