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

Chiral N-sulfinyl amides have recently emerged as powerful reagents for asymmetric, radical-mediated Smiles rearrangements, imparting excellent levels of relative and absolute stereocontrol in the intra- and intermolecular translocation of aryl groups. Here, we capitalize on the much more readily available and abundant chiral sulfoxides, which, in combination with radical precursors and alkylating reagents, afford enantioenriched sulfur-containing molecules via a photocatalytic multicomponent asymmetric sulfinyl-Smiles rearrangement with retention of "SO". This cascade process involves radical addition, a stereocontrolled 1,5-aryl migration, and subsequent C─S bond formation, forging two new C─C bonds and a C─S bond in a single step under mild conditions. The resulting enantioenriched sulfur-containing scaffolds are not only common in pharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds but also serve as versatile synthetic intermediates, as demonstrated by their efficient derivatization into diverse motifs.
