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

N-doped carbons (NCs) have excellent electrocatalytic performance in oxygen reduction reaction, particularly in alkaline conditions, showing great promise of replacing commercial Pt/C catalysts in fuel cells and metal-air batteries. However, NCs are vulnerable when biased at high potentials, which suffer from denitrogenation and carbon corrosion. Such material degradation drastically undermines the activity, yet its dynamic evolution in response to the applied potentials is challenging to examine experimentally. In this work, we used differential electrochemical mass spectroscopy coupled with an optimized cell and observed the dynamic behaviors of NCs under operando conditions in KOH electrolyte. The corrosion of carbon occurred at ca. 1.2 V vs RHE, which was >0.3 V below the measured onset potential of water oxidation. Denitrogenation proceeded in parallel with carbon corrosion, releasing both NO and NO
