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

Chalcogen bonding (ChB) is recognized as an essential intermolecular interaction in Group VIA element-containing materials. The multiple σ-holes with high directionality endow ChB with potential for chiral functions, including recognition, sensing and chiroptical materials. Herein, we employ ChB to enable chiral sensing and enantioenrichment and separation of organoselenocyanates. A library of organic selenocyanate derivatives was constructed, and their complexation with a chiral phenanthroline conjugated foldamer was driven by ChB, aided by hydrogen bonding and π-stacking forces. The deep chiral environment of the foldamer enables binding affinity bias towards enantiopure selenocyanates, yielding differential spectroscopic output and binding constants. ChB-mediated chiral recognition also impacts self-assembly, indicating that the emergence of macroscopic chirality is controlled by the enantiomeric matching effect. Finally, we realized efficient enantioenrichment of the organoselenocyanates utilizing ChB-assisted chiral recognition for the first time, which establishes a new route for the chiral separation of Se-containing pharmaceuticals by σ-hole interactions.
