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 this study, we present a rational donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) molecular design strategy to develop high-performance organic cathodes by enhancing the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect. We designed and synthesized two organic molecules: 2,6-bis(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d']diimidazole-4,8-dione (PTZBQ), featuring a strong quinone-type acceptor core, and the control compound 2,6-bis(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d']diimidazole (PTZTAB), without a quinone core. The strong push-pull electronic structure of PTZBQ not only results in a significantly narrowed bandgap and improved electrode kinetics, but also allows the quinone core to contribute extra n-type capacity, thereby remarkably boosting the electrode's specific capacity and reaction dynamics. Moreover, the extended π-conjugation and D-A-D configuration-induced polarity endow both small molecules with exceptional electrolyte dissolution resistance. Consequently, PTZBQ exhibits bipolar redox activity, delivering a high discharge potential of 3.05 V, a high specific capacity of 163.3 mAh g
