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

Nitrogen-based ligands are central to coordination chemistry but are limited to L- and X-type donor behavior. Here we report a fundamentally new class of nitrogen ligands based on N-heterocyclic nitrenium (NHN) frameworks that exhibit multimodal L-, X-, and Z-type coordination with reversible switching demonstrated between the L- and X-type states. These ligands represent the first examples of nitrogen-based Z-ligands, with the ability to switch between donor and acceptor modes in response to the coordination environment. As such, the formal oxidation state of a transition metal is reversibly changed simply by adding or removing a coordinating solvent introducing a unique concept of "redox-by-coordination". The coordination mode is confirmed by x-ray crystallography and comprehensive computational analysis.
