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

P-N species e.g., amidophosphates readily phosphorylate organics, thereby overcoming the so-called 'Phosphate Problem'. However, the formation of amidophosphates by plausible early Earth geochemical pathways is limited. We herein show that ammonolysis of the prebiotically plausible dimer of phosphite, pyrophosphite, readily affords amidophosphite, the monomeric P-N derivative of phosphite. Amidophosphite then undergoes spontaneous oxidation to form monoamidophosphate (MAP) and diamidophosphate (DAP) at room temperature (yields of the inorganic P-N species up to 48%). Oxidation of amidophosphite is promoted by O
