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

In recent years, significant progress in inverted (p-i-n) perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has been observed, primarily due to the development of innovative self-assembled monolayer (SAM) materials for the hole transport layer (HTL). SAM materials have gained more popularity over the conventional polymer HTL material poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine] (PTAA) because of their efficient hole transport and ability to passivate interfaces. Conjugated SAMs are considered as a good choice for PSCs because of their electrical and photostability. In this research, methoxy-functionalized conjugated SAMs (C21 and C22) were synthesized and studied for inverted Pb-based PSCs. Good coverage of the perovskite layer was observed on the C21 and C22 SAMs. The SAM molecules on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) tuned the work function (
