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

Conjugated covalent organic frameworks (COFs) integrating different aromatic building units into extended π-conjugated backbones through imine linkages exhibit great potential in photocatalysis but suffer from lower efficiency of intramolecular electron transfer. Herein, we present a new strategy for the reversible activation of imine-linked COFs by triethanolamine (TEOA) under light irradiation. The activated COFs exhibit expanded solar light absorption, elevated reduction potential, decreased chemical impedance, suppressed recombination of charges, and significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance in the generation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) without any metal cocatalysts. Experimental and theoretical results indicate that the fascinating photocatalytic performance originates from the protonation of imine bonds in the COFs, in which TEOA provides protons in addition to electrons, while light irradiation provides the driving force to overcome the energy barriers. This breaks through the traditional views that imine bonds can only be protonated under acidic conditions and provides new perspectives for the design of metal-free photocatalysts for highly efficient energy conversion.
