Visible-light-enabled excited-state dearomatization reactions.
Review in Science advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Dearomatization reactions stand as a cornerstone strategy for constructing pharmacologically pivotal saturated rings. Photoexcitation reshapes the electron distribution within the frontier molecular orbitals of aromatics, thereby unlocking dearomatization pathways inaccessible in the ground state and furnishing structurally distinct molecular motifs. Contemporary synthetic methodologies leverage three discrete mechanistic paradigms to achieve this electronic activation: direct excitation, energy-transfer photocatalysis, and exciplex formation. These precisely tuned energy-delivery modes enable the dearomatization of a diverse array of (hetero)arenes, including highly robust substrates such as naphthalenes and benzenes, under mild reaction conditions. This review spotlights recent representative advances in these excited-state transformations. We envision that this synopsis will fuel ongoing innovation in the burgeoning field of photochemical dearomatization.
