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

Inspired by deracemization via temperature cycles, which enables the collection of crystals of the desired enantiomer from an initially racemic mixture, we focus in this work on an alternative batch process, namely crystallization-induced deracemization. This process starts with a suspension of enantiomerically pure crystals, which undergoes a simple cooling crystallization, coupled with liquid-phase racemization. The experimental and model-based analysis of such a process, carried out here, revealed that: (i) deracemization via temperature cycles is a safe choice to operate with high enantiomeric purity, although its throughput is limited by the suspension density; (ii) if the distomer is less prone to nucleation, crystallization-induced deracemization is a simple process; however, its performance is strongly limited by the solubility; (iii) the purity achieved with crystallization-induced deracemization can be increased by utilizing large seed mass and by optimizing the cooling profile or catalyst concentration. Alternatively, the purity increases via partial dissolution of the seeds, which resembles the heating part of the deracemization process via temperature cycles.
