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

The elevated toxicity and persistent bioaccumulative propensity of per- and polychlorinated organics (PCOs) pose a substantial environmental hazard; however, current dechlorination technologies encounter challenges in surmounting the cumulative reductive inertia inherent to PCOs, resulting in low dechlorination efficiency and the persistence of ecotoxicity. Here, a vacancy-engineered zero-valent iron (ZVI) is proposed to address this challenge. The surface-modified carbon vacancies can extract outward-flowing electrons from lattice copper-doped ZVI (CvCu-ZVI), which react with trapped protons to generate reactive hydrogen in situ that subsequently spills over onto ZVI. Reversible hydrogen spillover enhances electron transfer, and superhydrophobic modification leads to a 38.1-fold increase in unit site activity and up to 95% electron utilization in CvCu-ZVI. Excitingly, this approach achieves carbon tetrachloride complete dechlorination, a typical PCOs, with a record intrinsic activity of 13.7 h
