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

Chiral N-spiroheterocycles are privileged yet synthetically challenging scaffolds for ligands, functional materials, and drug discovery. Here we show a cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric migratory dearomative annulation of electron-deficient N‑heteroarenes for their construction. The success of this transformation hinges on a dynamic ligand relay catalysis strategy, wherein two distinct ligands work in tandem: one facilitates a 1,4-cobalt/hydride shift, and the other governs the enantioselective dearomative annulation, delivering chiral N-spiroheterocycles with high efficiency and selectivity.
