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

Photocatalysis has the potential for lignin valorization to generate functionalized aromatic monomers, but its application has been limited by the slow conversion rate and the low selectivity to desirable aromatic products. In this work, we designed the phase junction CdS with coexposed hexagonal (100) and cubic (220) facets to improve the photogenerated charge carriers' transfer efficiency from (100) facet to (220) facet and the hydrogen transfer efficiency for an enhanced conversion rate of lignin to aromatic monomers. Water is found as a sufficient external hydrogen supplier to increase the yields of aromatic monomers. These innovative designs in the reaction system promoted complete conversion of PP-ol to around 94% of aromatic monomers after 1 h of visible light irradiation, which shows the highest reaction rate and selectivity of target products in comparison with previous works. PP-one is a byproduct from the overoxidation of PP-ol and is usually difficult to be further cleaved to acetophenone and phenol as the desirable aromatic monomers. TEA was first identified in this study as a sacrificial electron donor, a hydrogen source, and a mediator to enhance the cleavage of the C
