Chemistry in Extreme Environments: The Mystery of Molecular Complexity in Space.
Review in ACS central science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Molecular complexity in the interstellar medium (ISM) poses one of the most intriguing challenges in astrochemistry: how can chemical reactions operate efficiently under the extreme physical conditions of space? In this Outlook, we summarize recent advances in understanding the molecular synthesis in the ISM, emphasizing the interplay between gas-phase and grain-surface chemistry. Laboratory studies, ranging from gas-phase kinetics at low temperature to the irradiation of interstellar ice analogues, demonstrate that both energetic and nonenergetic processes contribute to the formation of complex organic and prebiotic molecules. We discuss how accurate exploration of reactive potential energy surfaces by means of quantum-chemical methodologies combined with kinetic simulations provide an atomistic interpretation of the interstellar processes. Despite the advances of the past decade, interstellar chemistry remains in its infancy: reaction networks are incomplete, and quantitative predictions remain limited.
