Photo-fluorination of nanodiamonds catalyzing oxidative dehydrogenation reaction of ethylbenzene.
Article in Nature communications, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Styrene is one of the most important industrial monomers and is traditionally synthesized via the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. Here, we report a photo-induced fluorination technique to generate an oxidative dehydrogenation catalyst through the controlled grafting of fluorine atoms on nanodiamonds. The obtained catalyst has a fabulous performance with ethylbenzene conversion reaching 70% as well as styrene yields of 63% and selectivity over 90% on a stream of 400 °C, which outperforms other equivalent benchmarks as well as the industrial K-Fe catalysts (with a styrene yield of 50% even at a much higher temperature of ca. 600 °C). Moreover, the yield of styrene remains above 50% after a 500 h test. Experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations reveal that the fluorine functionalization not only promotes the conversion of sp
