Why one can expect large rectification in molecular junctions based on alkane monothiols and why rectification is so modest.

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.
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
Many attempts to obtain high current rectification ratios (RRs) in molecular electronics are triggered by a potentiometer rule argument, which predicts that a strongly asymmetric location of the dominant molecular orbital yields large RR-values. Invoking this argument, molecular junctions based on alkane monothiols (CnT) can be expected to exhibit high RRs; the HOMO of these molecules is localized on the thiol terminal group bonded to one electrode. The extensive current-voltage (
