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

As the use of two-dimensional materials continues to grow, so too does the need to understand the environmental and biological impact of such materials. Degradation is a critical step in the life cycle of any material, but the majority of such knowledge is obtained from test tube and in vitro studies. Therefore, there remains a gap in understanding the degradability of two-dimensional materials in complex systems (in vivo) and in different ambient environments. In this Review, we highlight the need for more data-driven studies on the degradation of two-dimensional materials, including their kinetics, by-products, stability and possible downstream effects. Although challenging, building an understanding of the degradation profiles of different advanced materials in various environments at the chemical and molecular level is essential.
