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
Stimulus-responsive organic room temperature phosphorescent (RTP) materials have received significant attention in bioimaging, sensing, and data storage because of their controllable dynamic variability and rapid response. Organic co-crystals, with tailor-designed optical properties through manipulation of their aggregate structures, have proven to be very effective in elucidating the structure-property relationship of organic RTP materials at the molecular level. Therefore, enhancing RTP through rigid frameworks that promote intersystem crossing is a valid approach. Notably, the realization of organic RTP co-crystal performance by altering the components or adjusting the crystal lattices is highly appealing; however, this has not been fully addressed. In this study, an organic RTP co-crystal, 4,4'-bipyridine (44BD), was employed as the host, and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (DITF) and 4-bromo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoic acid (TFBA) were employed as guests. The 44BD-DITF co-crystal exhibited an orange RTP, whereas 44BD-TFBA displayed a bright yellow RTP. Crystal analysis and theoretical calculations revealed that dense molecular packing and abundant intermolecular interactions within these co-crystals are crucial for the emergence of RTP. Notably, both co-crystals show a reversible acid/base stimulus response, that is, exposure to hydrochloric acid (HCl) fumes results in quenching of their RTP, which can be subsequently restored by triethylamine (TEA) fumigation. This study presents an effective approach towards reversible RTP switching in organic co-crystals, thus offering opportunities for the development of acid/base stimulus-responsive materials for next-generation applications.
