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

Nonlocal density functional theory calculations were utilized to investigate the interactions of four different cyclic N-heterocyclic carbenes with a Pd/Cu(111) single-atom alloy surface. We find that the molecules are chemisorbed to the surface due to relatively large binding energies and significant charge transfer between the surface and the adsorbates. We highlight that modulating the NHC backbone changes the unoccupied states on the adsorbates that participate in back-donation from the surface to the adsorbate. This contrasts with the forward donation (adsorbate HOMO to the surface) that is left relatively unchanged through modifying the backbone.
