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

Glutaric acid (GA) is an important organic chemical raw material, but current industrialized production routes suffer from process complexity, low yield, and the use of high-polluting oxidants. Electrocatalytic synthesis of GA from glutaraldehyde waste provides a sustainable alternative to highly polluting conventional production methods. However, industrial production still faces challenges such as low energy efficiency (EE) and selectivity. Here, we present a commercially feasible GA electrosynthesis strategy with an EE of 55.4%, which significantly exceeds the 34.8% EE deemed economically viable based on a technical-economic analysis. We demonstrate that the high selectivity of glutaric acid (97%) is achieved through hydroxyl spillover from the introduction of Fe, which reduces the OH* coverage on the NiOOH site to inhibit the over-oxidation of glutaraldehyde. The bifunctional electrocatalyst-catalyzed HER-GOR system exhibits high Faraday efficiencies at both electrodes (99.8% for the HER and 92.7% for the GOR) and excellent stability after 24 hours of continuous operation at 500 mA cm
