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

Mechanochemical synthesis is a powerful approach to obtain new materials, limiting costs, and times. However, defected and submicrometrical-sized crystal products make critical their characterization through classical single-crystal X-ray diffraction. A valid alternative is represented by three-dimensional (3D) electron diffraction, in which a transmission electron microscope is used, like a diffractometer. This work matches a green water-based mechanochemical synthesis and 3D electron diffraction to obtain and characterize a Cu-based protocatechuate metal-organic framework (PC-MOF). Its structure has been fully refined through dynamical diffraction theory, and free water molecules could be detected in the channels of the framework. Thermal characterization, focused on the dehydration profile determination, leads to the formation of a novel high-temperature 2D coordination polymer, fully solved with 3D electron diffraction data. At last, the strong activity of the PC-MOF against cationic dyes like methylene blue has been reported.
