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

The sluggish kinetics of the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) are strongly associated with the high energy barriers required for the C-N cleavage and N-N coupling steps. While nickel-based catalysts are promising, their performance is limited by high operational potentials and structural instability. This work introduces neodymium (Nd) as a Lewis acid site promoter into a nickel-based framework to create Nd-Ni oxide catalysts. The strong Lewis acidity of Nd centers enhances urea adsorption and facilitates C-N cleavage and N-N coupling, while the significant electronegativity difference between Nd and Ni induces electronic redistribution for optimizing intermediate adsorption for UOR. As a result, the optimal catalyst demonstrates superior UOR performance, in which a low potential of 1.347 V is required to achieve 10 mA cm
