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

Embedding metal clusters in surface-supported metal-organic frameworks gives rise to multinuclear metal-organic coordination structures (MMOCs). The controllable configurations, exposed clusters, and multilevel interactions of MMOCs imply numerous potential applications, such as in catalysis, light-energy conversion, spintronics, and molecular electronics. Thus, the fabrication of MMOCs has been investigated extensively. According to the formation mechanism of metal clusters, we summarize five types of MMOCs. Attractive properties, e.g., magnetism, charge transfer and chirality, emerge in these systems. The surface-supported feature enables researchers to detect these properties via surface-sensitive techniques, such as scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, noncontact atomic force microscopy and local contact potential difference measurement. In addition, the results obtained from density functional theory calculations can be mutually verified with experiments. These studies pave the way for further applications of MMOCs.
