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

An atomistic study is conducted to elucidate the fracture behavior of pristine and centrally pre-cracked T4,4,4-graphyne nanosheets (150 Å × 150 Å) under uniaxial tension in both X- and Y-directions. Stress-strain responses are analyzed as functions of crack length (30-60 Å), orientation (0°-90°), and temperature (200-1000 K). Elastic modulus degradation is captured by power-law and trigonometric models, yielding high correlation coefficients. Ultimate tensile strength and fracture strain are shown to decline with increasing crack length and temperature, while toughness and mode I fracture toughness illustrate anisotropic energy absorption and crack-tip shielding effects, particularly under X-loading where ligament bridging and bond rotation mechanisms are activated. Thermal softening is modeled via the Wachtman equation, revealing near-linear modulus reduction and an inversion of directional stiffness at elevated temperatures. The results demonstrate that crack-length thresholds (~30% of sheet width) and mixed-mode loading conditions critically govern the transition from ductile-like to brittle fracture regimes in anisotropic 2D graphyne nanosheets.
