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

Metal-ligand bonding interactions for f-element compounds are typically highly polarized with only minor covalent character. Whereas the 5d/6d orbitals are known to be chemically accessible for dative bonding, recent quantum chemical and spectroscopic analyses have indicated appreciable 4f/5f-orbital involvement in certain metal-ligand bonds. However, 4f-orbital covalency has not been compellingly linked to distinctive modes of chemical reactivity via rigorous comparative study and mechanistic investigation. Here a series of M
