Secondary nucleation as a strategy towards hierarchically organized mesoscale topologies in supramolecular polymerization.
Review in Nature chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Developing new generic methodologies for organizing molecules into nano- to mesoscale structures of precise shapes and sizes is a research topic at the forefront of modern chemistry. Creating hierarchical molecular assembly, especially at the mesoscale, is important to realize functions reminiscent of those manifested by biomolecular assemblies in the mesoscopic regime. However, this is challenging due to the difficulty in maintaining stringent controllability over the organization of molecules at higher hierarchical levels, wherein weak non-directional intermolecular interactions rather than strong directional interactions typically play a predominant role. Recent studies have revealed that secondary nucleation, often experienced by one-dimensional assemblies such as supramolecular polymers that grow with spontaneous nucleation, is effective in the hierarchical construction of higher-order structures. Here we illustrate how secondary nucleation can be combined with the well-established precision synthesis of supramolecular polymers to realize precise control over hierarchical structures in the mesoscopic regime. We present a roadmap for creating hierarchical supramolecular polymers by exploiting secondary nucleation-elongation processes and discuss future prospects for the field.
