A photochemical rotor bias in dual molecular motors.
Article in Nature chemistry, 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
Inspired by the exceptional control over molecular motion in biological machinery, artificial molecular motors capable of unidirectional rotation have been developed. However, achieving two actively powered rotations at different frequencies within a single molecule has remained elusive. Here molecular motors are presented incorporating two structurally distinct rotors, each operating at a unique rotational frequency-resembling a molecular steering system. The rotor activation preference arises from differences in photochemical, rather than thermal, behaviour and can be tuned by the rotor structure, solvent and light source. This discovery of controlling mixed rotor systems could, in principle, be applied to other rotors, combinations thereof and even to other classes of molecular motors, and thus could serve as a blueprint for the construction of future advanced synthetic molecular machines.
