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 ridge at the intersection of two adjacent non-equivalent facets of single crystalline particles holds great potential to harmonize catalytic activity and durability. However, conventional facet engineering usually yields crystals with sparse ridges, impeding ridge catalysis. Here, we implement a programmed growth strategy via a decomposable evaporative eutectic system, enabling alternating BFDH-driven <422> -preferential growth and Wulff-guided <111> -preferential growth in pentlandite to produce dense ridges between {111} and {200} facets. The facet-dependent surface reconstruction induces the selective formation of NiOOH and (Fe,Ni)OOH on the {111} and {200} facets, respectively, to create highly active NiOOH/(Fe,Ni)OOH interfacial sites precisely at their ridges, which overcomes the Fe/Ni-equivalent homogeneity constraints of pentlandite to unlock its activities in oxygen evolution reaction (186 mV at 10 mA cm
