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 reliable, quantitative investigation of charge transport at the single-molecule level remains a key challenge in molecular electronics. In this study, we develop a universal strategy to fabricate molecular devices based on edge-selective chemical oxidation of graphene electrodes with atomically defined zigzag edges and controllable nanogaps, thus enabling precise covalent connection of molecules for device construction. Stable single-molecule devices are then successfully created by covalently connecting three representative wire-like organometallic ruthenium molecules (Ru 1, Ru 2, and Ru 3) between nanogapped graphene electrodes via an amidation reaction. The superior accuracy of our approach is substantiated by the exceptional device-to-device uniformity across various devices, with normalized standard deviations of ∼1.04%, ∼1.27%, and ∼0.91% for Ru 1, Ru 2, and Ru 3, respectively, which significantly surpass conventional methods. Leveraging this platform, we uncover a metal-enhanced conductance effect characterized by an ultralow attenuation (β  =  0.069 nm
