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 conversion of carbonyls to olefins is a transformation of great importance for complex molecule synthesis. Standard methods use stoichiometric reagents that have poor atom economy and require strongly basic conditions, which limit their functional group compatibility. An ideal solution would be to catalytically olefinate carbonyls under nonbasic conditions using simple and widely available alkenes, yet no such broadly applicable reaction is known. Here, we demonstrate a tandem electrochemical/electrophotocatalytic reaction to olefinate aldehydes and ketones with a broad range of unactivated alkenes. This method involves the oxidation-induced denitrogenation of cyclic diazenes to form 1,3-distonic radical cations that rearrange to yield the olefin products. This olefination reaction is enabled by an electrophotocatalyst that inhibits back-electron transfer to the radical cation intermediate, thus allowing for the selective formation of olefin products. The method is compatible with a wide range of aldehydes, ketones, and alkene partners.
