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

Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are a class of technologically relevant tetrapyrrolic macrocycles that offer rich photophysical properties as well as excellent tunability by means of chemical functionalization. Among such functionalization strategies, the synthesis of multinuclear, fully fused Pcs - adjacent macrocycles seamlessly fused through a shared aromatic ring into a continuous π-system - is particularly appealing for the preparation of new, exotic, atomically precise carbon frameworks. However, the notoriously low solubility of Pcs typically impedes the synthesis of oligomers beyond trimers. In addition, the positional control for specific units in large low-symmetry frameworks is particularly challenging. In this work, taking advantage of the benefits of on-surface synthesis under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions, we present a strategy that allows the on-surface synthesis of cross-shaped Pc pentamers. This pentamer, which bears two different metal ions with pre-defined positional control, shows a small transport gap of 1.15 eV on Au(111).
