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

Template-directed synthesis has become a powerful methodology to access complex molecules. Noncovalent templating has been widely used in the last few decades, but less attention has been paid to covalent template-directed synthesis, despite the fact that this methodology was used for the first reported synthesis of a catenane. This review highlights the evolution of covalent templating over the last 60 years, thereby providing a toolbox for the design of efficient covalent templating processes. Covalent templating represents a useful synthetic tool for accessing complex molecules, and the examples described here include the synthesis of macrocycles, mechanically interlocked molecules, linear oligomers, polydisperse linear polymers, and cross-linked polymer networks.
