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

Monoelemental two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are superior to binary and ternary 2D materials, currently attract remarkable interest due to their fascinating properties. Though the thermal and thermoelectric (TE) transport properties of tellurium have been studied in recent years, there is little research about the thermal and TE properties of multilayer tellurium with interlayer interaction force. Herein, the layer modulation of the phonon transport and TE performance of monolayer, bilayer, and trilayer tellurium is investigated by first-principles calcuations. First, it was found that thermal conductivity as a function of layer numbers possesses a robust, unusually non-monotonic behavior. Moreover, the anisotropy of the thermal transport properties of tellurium is weakened with the increase in the number of layers. By phonon-level systematic analysis, we found that the variation of phonon transport under the layer of increment was determined by increasing the phonon velocity in specific phonon modes. Then, the TE transport properties showed that the maximum figure of merit (
