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

contextThe development of high-efficiency photovoltaic devices is the need of time with increasing demand for energy. Herein, we designed seven small molecule donors (SMDs) with A-π-D-π-A backbones containing various acceptor groups for high-efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs). Molecular engineering was performed by substituting the acceptor group in the synthesized compound (BPR) with another highly efficient acceptor group to improve the photoelectric performance of the molecule.

methodThe photovoltaic, optoelectronic, and photophysical properties of the proposed compounds (BP1-BP7) were investigated in comparison to BPR using DFT and TD-DFT at MPW1PW91/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. All molecules we designed have red-shifted absorption spectra. The modification of the acceptor fragment of the BPR resulted in a reduced HOMO-LUMO energy gap; thus, the designed compounds (BP1-BP7) had improved optoelectronic responses as compared with the BPR molecule. Various key factors that are crucial for efficient SMDs such as exciton binding energy, frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), absorption maximum (λ
