Metal-hydroxyls mediate intramolecular proton transfer in heterogeneous O-O bond formation.
Article in Nature chemistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Metal (hydro)oxides are among the most effective heterogeneous water oxidation catalysts. Elucidating the interactions between oxygen-bridged metal sites at a molecular level is essential for developing high-performing electrocatalysts. Here we demonstrate that adjacent metal-hydroxyl groups function as intramolecular proton-electron transfer relays to enhance water oxidation kinetics. We achieved this using a well-defined molecular platform with an aza-fused π-conjugated microporous polymer that coordinates molecular Ni or Ni-Fe sites that emulate the structure of the most active edge sites in Ni-Fe materials for studying the heterogeneous water oxidation mechanism. We combine experimental and computational results to reveal the origin of pH-dependent reaction kinetics for O-O bond formation. We find both the anions in solution and the adjacent Ni
