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

The binding energy (BE) of metal-ligand complexes is a fundamental parameter that governs the stability, reactivity, and selectivity in catalysis and separation processes. For bidentate coordination of aromatic ligands with metal cations, it is still unclear what fundamental electronic and structural properties govern the metal-ligand binding. Here, density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with statistical analysis were used to uncover the key descriptors that control metal-ligand binding. Fourteen descriptors were selected to represent the physicochemical properties of metals/ligands. Electron affinity of metals (EA
