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

Due to its exceptional chemical and functional versatility, N-heterocyclic carbene chemistry holds great promise in replacing thiol chemistry for applications in next-generation nanoelectronics. To manipulate their chemical properties and interfacial characteristics, a wide range of substrates needs to be employed for the formation of self-assemblies. Research has, however, predominantly focused on the Au(111) substrate. Herein, a systematic approach is presented for producing long-range, densely packed self-assemblies using carbenes deposited over (111) and (100) crystalline facets of gold and silver single crystals. Atomic-resolution characterization with scanning tunneling microscopy (performed at 78 K and room temperature) is combined with the molecular structure, showing the role of distinct crystal facets in the ordering of self-assembled monolayers.
