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

Achieving room-temperature ferromagnetism in purely organic two-dimensional (2D) materials remains a fundamental challenge. Here, we introduce a mixed-topology strategy to induce strong ferromagnetic (FM) coupling in metal-free 2D frameworks. By covalently connecting non-Kekulé polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) radicals with distinct sublattice topologies, we rationally break inversion and time-reversal symmetries and thereby unlock intrinsic FM order in π-conjugated 2D networks. Leveraging this concept, we computationally designed a family of 32 FM 2D frameworks featuring spin-1/2 and hybrid spin-1/2-spin-1 honeycomb lattices. First-principles calculations revealed that these organic 2D frameworks are robust FM semiconductors with tunable spin-dependent bandgaps (0.9-3.8 eV). Remarkably, they exhibit record-high FM couplings of up to 127 meV, spin-splitting energies exceeding 2 eV, and crossover (Curie) temperatures above 550 K, ensuring ferromagnetic order stability far beyond room temperature. The strong FM interaction originates from substantial overlap between half-filled, delocalized π-orbitals, which enhances direct magnetic exchange while suppressing antiferromagnetic superexchange. These findings establish an effective design principle for metal-free FM semiconductors and pave the way for flexible magnets for next-generation spintronics and quantum technologies.
