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

Alcohol coupling reactions that are induced by alcohol dehydrogenation, and generate hydrogen or water as the only byproducts, have become a well-recognized way to carry out important synthetic transformations, such as esterification and alkylation, in a green and atom-economical fashion. Herein, we report a new type of alcohol-alcohol coupling reaction that involves the dehydrogenative annulation of ethylene glycol with secondary alcohols to give 1,2-cyclopentanedione derivatives in a single synthetic step. This process, which is catalyzed by a pincer complex of earth-abundant manganese, represents a new approach for constructing structurally complicated products from inexpensive, readily available alcohols.
