Open-Source Photochemistry in the Organic Chemistry Teaching Laboratory.
Article in ACS omega, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 development of an undergraduate organic chemistry laboratory exercise that utilizes a set of low-cost, open-source photoreactors to introduce students to photochemical principles. A series of nine 3D printed photoreactors were constructed with emission maxima centered from the near-UV to the near-IR. Students used these photoreactors to measure the impact of photon wavelength on the bromination of bibenzyl. The class data was pooled, and the students rationalized the observed wavelength dependence of the reaction. Results from a postlab survey indicated that students believed this laboratory activity increased their understanding of photochemistry, their ability to formulate their own hypotheses, and their ability to adapt and learn from their mistakes.
