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

Direct ammonolysis of triglycerides with liquid ammonia is a well-established technology for the industrial manufacture of aliphatic amides typically requiring a large excess of ammonia. In this study, using glyceryl trilaurate (GTL) as a model triglyceride, we demonstrate that the rate of lauramide formation can be enhanced sevenfold at 150 °C and low ammonia excess (47:1 mol/mol ammonia/GTL) when the reaction is carried out in GTL-in-water(acetonitrile) (50:50 v/v) emulsions stabilized by surface-active Aquivion perfluorosulfonic superacid (PFSA) particles, compared to a non-emulsified system. Moreover, the lauramide yield after 5 h is nine times higher than that achieved with conventional ammonolysis in liquid ammonia at higher ammonia excess (148:1 mol/mol ammonia/GTL). This significant increase in activity is attributed to the "on-water" selective acidification at the microstructured oil-water interface facilitated by adsorbed Aquivion PFSA particles, in combination with enhanced ammonia solubilization and selective glycerol extraction by the water(acetonitrile) phase.
