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

The effective use of the active phase is the main goal of the optimization of supported catalysts. However, carbon supports do not interact strongly with metal oxides, thus, oxidative treatment is often used to enhance the number of anchoring sites for deposited particles. In this study, we set out to investigate whether the oxidation pretreatment of mesoporous carbon allows the depositing of a higher loading and a more dispersed cobalt active phase. We used graphitic ordered mesoporous carbon obtained by a hard-template method as active phase support. To obtain different surface concentrations and speciation of oxygen functional groups, we used a low-temperature oxygen plasma. The main methods used to characterize the studied materials were X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electrocatalytic tests in the oxygen evolution reaction. We have found that the oxidative pretreatment of mesoporous carbon influences the speciation of the deposited cobalt oxide phase. Moreover, the activity of the electrocatalysts in oxygen evolution is positively correlated with the relative content of the COO-type groups and negatively correlated with the C═O-type groups on the carbon support. Furthermore, the high relative content of COO-type groups on the carbon support is correlated with the presence of well-dispersed Co
