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

Monolayers of group IV monochalcogenides are predicted to exhibit multiferroic behavior, combining both ferroelectric and ferroelastic properties at room temperature. However, the ferroelasticity of these materials has not yet been investigated experimentally. We theoretically report ferroelastic properties in few-layer SnSe, which demonstrate multiferroic behavior. Experimentally, polarization-resolved second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements were conducted on few-layer SnSe flakes to reveal their in-plane polarization along the armchair direction. A force-induced structural transition was observed in several flakes of SnSe, as confirmed by SHG analysis. First-principles calculations elucidate the strain-dependent SHG response and suggest that the structural transition is associated with the process of ferroelastic or partial ferroelastic switching.
