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

Controlling reaction pathways in electrocatalytic biomass upgrading remains challenging because mass transport, substrate adsorption, and elementary kinetics are intrinsically coupled within catalyst architectures. Here, we report a ligand-intercalation strategy that enables selective reaction-pathway engineering in layered metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) by decoupling effects of steric and electronic microenvironments. Aromatic dicarboxylate ligands with systematically varied length and π-electron density are intercalated into NiCo-based MOFs to create tunable interlayer nanochannels that independently regulate molecular diffusion and substrate-catalyst interactions. Expanded interlayer spacing enhances alcohol oxidation by improving mass transport and active-site accessibility, whereas π-electron-rich ligands selectively promote aldehyde oxidation through strengthened π-π interactions and accelerated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), resulting in a shift of the rate-determining step (RDS) from a chemical to an electrochemical step. These orthogonal effects are quantitatively correlated with kinetic analysis, impedance spectroscopy, adsorption measurements, in situ spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations. As a result, the optimized MOFs deliver low onset potentials, current densities up to 200 mA cm
