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

The transformation from fossil resources, crude oil and natural gas to biomass-derived feedstocks is an urgent and major challenge for the chemical industry. The valorization of lignocellulose as renewable resource is a promising pathway offering access to a wide range of platform chemicals, such as vanillin, furfural and 5-HMF. The subsequent conversion of such platform chemicals is one crucial step in the value-added chain. The electrochemical hydrodimerization (EHD) is a sustainable tool for C-C coupling of these chemicals to their corresponding hydrodimers hydrovanilloin, hydrofuroin and 5,5'-bis(hydroxymethyl)hydrofuroin (BHH). This review covers the current state of art concerning the mechanism of the electrochemical reduction of biobased aldehydes and studies targeting the electrochemical production of these hydrodimers in aqueous media. Moreover, the subsequent conversion of these hydrodimers to valuable additives, polymers and long carbon chain synfuels will be summarized offering a broad scope for their application in the chemical industry.
