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

Nonporous adaptive crystals (NACs) represent a unique class of supramolecular macrocycle-based crystalline organic materials that have garnered significant attention in supramolecular chemistry and beyond over the past decade. Unlike traditional porous materials, NACs are initially nonporous but can induce porosity through host-guest interactions in the solid-state, enabling exceptional performance in hydrocarbon separation. This review surveys the development of NACs based on novel macrocyclic arenes inspired by pillararene and calixarene structures, encompassing biphen[n]arene, tiara[n]arene, leaning pillararene, hybrid[n]arene, leggero pillararene, geminiarene, bowtiearene, rhombicarene, and other derivatives. Emphasizing their preparation, structural characteristics, and mechanisms of adsorptive selectivity, this comprehensive overview highlights their contributions to advancing supramolecular chemistry, functional materials, and beyond. Finally, the remaining challenges and perspectives are outlined. It is anticipated that this review will serve as a timely and valuable reference for researchers interested in NACs and related materials, stimulating further impactful studies in related fields.
