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

Helically coiled, semiconducting graphenic nanostructures show exceptional promise for nanoelectronics, yet their synthesis has remained challenging due to their inherently strained backbone and the difficulties associated with structural characterization. In this work, we demonstrate the synthesis and characterization of laterally π-extended polyhelicenes (EPHs), achieved through regioselective cyclodehydrogenation. Spectroscopic and microscopic analyses, including mass spectrometry, solid-state NMR, scanning-probe microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, confirm the well-defined helical, layered architecture of the EPHs. Ultrafast terahertz spectroscopy reveals pronounced intrahelix photoconductivity, demonstrating their potential as carbon-based nanoscale conductors. The scalable synthetic approach described in this work unlocks the application potential of carbon-based helical nanostructures, paving the way for nanoinductors in nanoscale solenoids, spin-selective electronics, and future high-frequency nanoelectronic devices.
