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

Local disorders of lattice, charge, orbital, and spin perturbate the electron density distribution in materials, profoundly influencing their properties. Consequently, experimental determination of local electron density offers a powerful, universal approach to probe such disorder. Although quantitative convergent beam electron diffraction (QCBED) is widely employed for electron density measurements in ordered crystals, its applicability to disordered structures, where the translational symmetry of the electrostatic potential is broken, remains uncertain. Here, a multi-beam off-zone axis CBED technique combined with a coherent potential approximation in Bloch wave formalism is used to simultaneously determine chemical disorder parameters, deformation electron density ∆ρ
