Recent advances in the chemistry of α-hydoxyphosphonates: synthesis, reactivity, biological applications and theoretical study: a review from 2010 to 2025.
Review in RSC 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
α-Hydroxyphosphonates are a critically important class of organophosphorus compounds with broad applications across diverse fields. This review paper surveys recent advancements from 2010 to 2025, focusing on their synthesis, reactivity, and biological activities. Key studies published prior to 2010 are also cited to provide essential background and to acknowledge foundational contributions to the field. Emphasis is placed on key synthetic methodologies such as the Pudovik and Abramov reactions, developments in asymmetric synthesis using chiral catalysts, and the utility of the α-hydroxyl group as a reactive functional handle. Special attention is given to environmentally friendly strategies including catalytic processes, ultrasonication and microwave-assisted synthesis. Several examples of the diverse biological properties of α-hydroxyphosphonates are also discussed. In addition, theoretical studies using DFT and molecular modeling are highlighted for their role in elucidating structure-activity relationships and supporting drug discovery. This review aims to be a valuable reference for researchers working in the field of organophosphorus chemistry.
