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 reaction of an aryne with an alkyne to generate a benzocyclobutadiene (BCB) intermediate is rare. We report here examples of this reaction, revealed by Diels-Alder trapping of the BCB by either pendant or external electron-deficient alkynes. Mechanistic delineation of the reaction course is supported by DFT calculations. A three-component process joining the benzyne first with an electron-rich and then with an electron-poor alkyne was uncovered. Reactions in which the BCB functions in a rarely observed role as a 4π diene component in Diels-Alder reactions are reported. The results also shed new light on aspects of the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder reaction used to generate the benzynes.
