Synthesis of aromatic amides from lignin and its derivatives.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Benzamides constitute an important class of bulk and fine chemicals as well as essential parts of many life science molecules. Currently, all these compounds are majorly produced from petrochemical-based feedstocks. Notably the selective aerobic oxidative conversion of lignin and lignin-derived compounds to primary, secondary, and tertiary amides and phenols offers the potential for a more sustainable synthesis of valuable building blocks for fine chemicals, monomers for polymers, biologically active molecules, and diverse consumer products. Here we present the concept of "lignin to amides" which is demonstrated by a one-pot, multi-step oxidation process utilizing molecular oxygen and a 3d-metal catalyst with highly dispersed and stable cobalt species (Co-SACs) supported on nitrogen-doped carbon in water as solvent. Moreover, our cobalt-based methodology allows for the cost-efficient transformation of a lignin and its variety of derivates simply using O
