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

A major challenge in organic synthesis is the selective functionalization of C-H bonds. As most organic compounds contain multiple C-H bonds with similar properties, distinguishing between them requires precise control. In this study, we show how transition metal catalysts can adopt many of the characteristics associated with enzymes, leading to unprecedented site-selectivity in the C-H functionalization step. The catalysts are dirhodium complexes that adopt a bowl-shaped shape on formation. The flexible microenvironment within the bowl causes an induced fitting to occur as the reagent and substrate approach the catalyst. The key factors controlling the selectivity are noncovalent interactions between the approaching substrate and the catalyst wall, which cause a specific C-H bond in the substrate to be placed close to the metal-bound reagent.
