First Evidence of Pheomelanin-UVA-Driven Synthesis of Pummerer's Ketones by Peroxidase-Mediated Oxidative Coupling of Substituted Phenols.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Photoexcitation of pheomelanin produces high-energy singlet oxygen and the superoxide anion, which are reactive species in damage of cellular targets. In principle, these species can be involved in processes of synthetic utility when adequate experimental conditions are defined. Here, we describe that pheomelanin performs as a selective UVA antenna for the horseradish peroxidase oxidative coupling of substituted phenols to biologically active Pummerer's ketones under 2-methyltetrahydrofuran/buffer biphasic conditions. In this system, singlet oxygen is scavenged by conversion of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran into the corresponding organic hydroperoxide, while the superoxide anion is dismutated into hydrogen peroxide. Both these intermediates are able to oxidize the active site of horseradish peroxidase triggering the oxidative coupling reaction. Trimer derivatives, produced by addition of phenoxy radicals on preformed Pummerer's ketones were also isolated, suggesting the possibility to further improve the structural complexity of the reaction products.
