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

We investigate the use of phthalocyanine, from the family of multipurpose functional organic complexes, as an interlayer between the hole-selective contact and the perovskite in self-assembled monolayer-based p-i-n perovskite solar cells. This phthalocyanine interlayer effectively mitigated recombination losses that were occurring between the self-assembled hole-extraction monolayer based on the carbazole functional group and the perovskite film. Furthermore, the crystallinity of the perovskite semiconductor was enhanced, which reduced nonradiative recombination and resulted in an increase in shunt resistance and a higher open-circuit voltage. The efficiency improved from 18.4% to 20.2%. A similar boost in efficiency was found under indoor lighting conditions (from 27.3% to 30.1%). The tetra-3,5-dimethylphenoxy-zinc phthalocyanine (DMPO4) molecule synthesized for this work also enhanced device stability under ISOS-D1 tests with the average
