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 strategic utilization of earth-abundant transition metals in catalysis has emerged as a trans-formative movement in advancing of synthetic chemistry. Despite notable progress, the potential of leveraging diverse geometric configurations of these catalysts to achieve divergent synthesis remains largely untapped. In this work, we present a stereodivergent three-component borylfunctionalization of alkynes, enabled by ligand-modulated geometric variations in nickel catalysts. This approach provides a versa-tile platform for the stereodivergent synthesis of two classes of valuable polysubstituted alkene building blocks, a challenging feat in organic synthesis. Its practical utility is showcased by the rapid construction of biologically relevant molecules. Mechanistic studies support that different geometric configurations of nickel catalysts display distinct reactivity during key reaction steps, leading to the observed stereochemical outcomes.
