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 nonoxidative coupling of methane (NOCM) offers a promising route to convert methane into value-added chemicals. Liquid metals have emerged as potential catalysts for NOCM, due to their propensity against coke formation and the flexible atomic arrangement that facilitates methane activation, with liquid state indium (In) gaining attention. However, the reaction pathways and catalytic mechanisms of In during NOCM have yet to be fully understood. Here, we report the discovery of locally generated In liquid metal active sites on In
