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

In contrast to allyl palladium complexes, propargylic/allenylic palladium species display complex reactivities that limit their implementation in polymer chemistry, especially for chain-growth polymerizations. Here we report an example of controlled chain-growth polymerization via propargyl/allenyl palladium intermediates. Vinylidenecyclopropane 1,1-dicarboxylate (VDCP), a unique allenylic electrophile, selectively reacts via the σ-allenyl palladium complex rather than the more common π-propargyl pathway, thereby unlocking a chain-growth process. Based on this concept, precise synthesis of alkyne-backbone polymers is realized, featuring fast rate, high molecular weight, narrow dispersity, high chemoselectivity, and excellent end-group fidelity. We demonstrate preparation of unsaturated macromolecules with advanced sequences and architectures using this method, including block, gradient, and graft copolymers.
