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

Supported catalytically active liquid metal solutions (SCALMS) are materials composed of a liquid metal alloy deposited on a porous support. Due to the dynamic properties of the liquid metal alloy, these systems are suggested to form single atom sites, resulting in unique catalytic properties. Ga-Ni SCALMS were successfully applied to ethylene oligomerization, yielding catalysts that were stable up to 120 h time on stream. A workflow based on synchrotron-based X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) as well as density function theory (DFT) and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations was applied to investigate the nature of the active species in these materials. The combination of XPS with DFT calculations indeed indicates the presence of isolated single Ni atoms on the liquid metal surface, while TEM measurements show high dynamics in the liquid metal with intermetallic phase dissolution and transformation. Furthermore, DFT/AIMD methods allowed for rationalizing the role of hydrogen pretreatment in enriching the Ni atom at the surface of the liquid metal alloy.
