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

contextThis study examines the adsorption behavior of dibenzothiophene (DBT) on nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide (N-doped TiO₂) to evaluate its potential in photocatalytic desulfurization. The work focuses on structural stability, charge transfer, electronic properties, and dynamic interactions of the hybrid system. The findings show that nitrogen doping reduces the TiO₂ band gap, enhances charge redistribution, and improves adsorption affinity. Molecular dynamics simulations confirm the strong thermal stability of the DBT/N-doped TiO₂ composite, while recovery time calculations highlight its rapid sensing and reusability. These results underscore the promise of N-doped TiO₂ as an efficient material for sulfur pollutant removal.

methodsDensity functional theory (DFT) was employed to analyze adsorption energies, band structures, charge density, and non-covalent interactions, supported by Bader charge analysis. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were carried out to evaluate the thermal stability and dynamic behavior of the DBT/N-doped TiO₂ system.
