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

Traditional optical organic vapor sensors with solvatochromic shift mechanisms have lower sensitivity due to weak intermolecular interactions. Here, we report a general strategy to prepare a higher sensitivity optical organic vapor sensor through polymeric swelling-induced variation of fluorescent intensity. We combine one-dimensional polymeric structures and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecules together to form a polymer/AIE microwires array as a sensor. The prepared sensors based on different commercial polymers can successfully classify and identify various organic vapors. Among them, the poly(vinyl butyral)/AIE microwires array can detect methanol vapor as low as 0.05% of its saturation vapor pressure. According to the theory of like dissolves like, we further fabricate a polymer/AIE microwires array derived from designable polyethersulfones, through regulating their side chains, to distinguish similar organic vapors of benzene and toluene. Both experimental and theoretical simulation results reveal that specific molecular interactions between the polyethersulfones and organic vapors can improve the specific recognition performance of the sensors.
