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 chemical inertness and thermal stability of plastics contribute to their durability and stability across a wide range of applications. However, these same properties present significant challenges for their recycling under mild conditions. In this study, a novel photothermal catalytic system is developed featuring Pd single-atom catalysts (SACs) anchored on activated carbon for the efficient and rapid photothermal depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by ethylene glycol (EG). Different from top-down lighting used in other studies, side lighting is used to avoid the negative influence of EG evaporation on the photothermal conversion. By optimizing the structure of the catalyst, near complete PET decomposition within 4 h under a light intensity of 0.5 W cm
