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

Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the pivotal obstacle of water splitting for hydrogen production. Dual-sites catalysts (DSCs) are considered exceeding single-site catalysts due to the preternatural synergetic effects of two metals in OER. However, appointing the specific spatial configuration of dual-sites toward more efficient catalysis still remains a challenge. Herein, we constructed two configurations of Fe-Co dual-sites: stereo Fe-Co sites (stereo-Fe-Co DSC) and planar Fe-Co sites (planar-Fe-Co DSC). Remarkably, the planar-Fe-Co DSC has excellent OER performance superior to stereo-Fe-Co DSC. DFT calculations and experiments including isotope differential electrochemical mass spectrometry, in situ infrared spectroscopy, and in situ Raman reveal the *O intermediates can be directly coupled to form *O-O* rather than *OOH by both the DSCs, which could overcome the limitation of four electron transfer steps in OER. Especially, the proper Fe-Co distance and steric direction of the planar-Fe-Co benefit the cooperation of dual sites to dehydrogenate intermediates into *O-O* than stereo-Fe-Co in the rate-determining step. This work provides valuable insights and support for further research and development of OER dual-site catalysts.
