Controlled magnetic bistability of a helical non-Kekulé hydrocarbon on a Au(111) surface.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recent advances in the synthesis of graphene fragments that possess unpaired π-electrons and display high-spin ground states have unlocked possibilities to explore exotic physical phenomena related to magnetism. The high degree of spin-delocalisation makes these non-metal-based systems ideal building blocks for the construction of chains and lattices with strongly correlated magnetic ground states, which is the main requisite for measurement-based quantum computation. In this work, we demonstrate the magnetic bistability of a diradical nanographene that allows direct spin manipulation at the single-molecule level. To this end, we make use of solution-phase synthesis and tip-induced activation on a metallic surface to construct a helical non-Kekulé hydrocarbon spin switch, with a reversible transformation between a magnetic ground state and a non-magnetic one via intramolecular bond formation/breaking. The switching process is monitored by scanning tunnelling spectroscopy measurements, illustrating that this, and related systems, hold potential as spin-switch units for direct manipulation of magnetism and quantum information in entangled spin systems.
