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

Reported herein is a further expansion of the cooperatively catalyzed Koenigs-Knorr glycosylation reaction, known as "the 4K reaction". It has been discovered that molecular iodine, along with a metal salt and an acid additive, can activate thioglycosides. Previous mechanistic studies showed the interaction of the anomeric sulfur with thiophilic iodine; this complex is stable until the halophilic metal salt and the acid additive are added. This new avenue has allowed for the investigation of halophilic promoters that would not activate thioglycosides without iodine. Presented herein is the recent discovery of iron(III) triflate as an efficient activator of thioglycosides via the 4K reaction pathway.
