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

Photochemical sensing demands systems that adjust their optical properties without altering chromophore structure. Here, we report CPCQ, a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF)-active macrocycle, as a responsive platform for optical sensing. CPCQ shows a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 78%, a delayed lifetime of 243 ns, and an efficient reverse intersystem crossing rate of 2.68 × 10⁷ s⁻¹. Unlike conventional fluorescent and TADF emitters, CPCQ with cyclic array of four TADF active donor-acceptors enables reversible state switching of its emission mechanism. Electron-deficient guests form exciplexes with reducing fluorescence and shifting emission. In contrast, electron-rich guests enhance delayed fluorescence (248 ns) via the heavy atom effect. Oxygen quenches charge-transfer emission and restores blue-shifted locally excited (LE) emission. Strikingly, hydrogen flips the effect, triples LE emission (k
