Heavy Solution for Molecular Thermal Management: Phonon Transport Suppression with Heavy Atoms.

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.
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
Thermal management in molecular systems presents challenges that require a deeper understanding of phonon transport, an essential aspect of heat conduction in single-molecule junctions. Our work introduces the use of heavy atoms as a strategy for suppressing phonon transport in organic molecules. Starting with a one-dimensional (1D) force-constant model and density functional theory calculations of model chemical systems, we illustrate how increasing the mass of a central atom affects phonon transmission and conductance. Following this, we turned our attention to the chemically accessible systems of metallapolyynes and extended metal atom chains (EMACs). Our findings suggest that several of the studied EMACs exhibit thermal conductance either near or below a recently proposed threshold of 10 pW/K-a crucial step toward reaching high thermoelectric figure of merits. Specifically, we predict that the molecule MoMoNi(npo)
