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

Manufacturing custom three-dimensional (3D) carbon functional materials is of utmost importance for applications ranging from electronics and energy devices to medicine, and beyond. In lieu of viable eco-friendly synthesis pathways, conventional methods of carbon growth involve energy-intensive processes with inherent limitations of substrate compatibility. The yearning to produce complex structures, with ultra-high aspect ratios, further impedes the quest for eco-friendly and scalable paths toward 3D carbon-based materials patterning. Here, we demonstrate a facile process for carbon 3D printing at room temperature, using low-power visible light and a metal-free catalyst. Within seconds to minutes, this one-step photocatalytic growth yields rod-shaped microstructures with aspect ratios up to ~500 and diameters below 10 μm. The approach enables the rapid patterning of centimeter-size arrays of rods with tunable height and pitch, and of custom complex 3D structures. The patterned structures exhibit appealing luminescence properties and ohmic behavior, with great potential for optoelectronics and sensing applications, including those interfacing with biological systems.
