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

We report the design of curved anthracene systems that undergo efficient Dewar isomerization upon visible light absorption and release heat through thermally triggered reverse isomerization, with high cyclability. These systems achieve remarkably high energy storage capacities-up to 170 kJ/mol and 0.65 MJ/kg-comparable to the best reported MOST materials, while offering the added capability of harnessing standard solar spectrum and presenting chemical robustness. Notably, these curved anthracenes can be fine-tuned to store energy in a neat liquid state, presenting a promising route toward solvent-free solar thermal energy storage devices. This report highlights the potential of fully carbon-based aromatic systems to store a large quantity of solar energy
