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

α-Tertiary alkylamines are privileged motifs with a strong propensity to be bioactive, rendering their efficient synthesis fundamentally important across diverse areas of chemistry. Despite recent advances in aliphatic amine preparation, the direct construction of hindered α-tertiary amines remains a long-standing challenge. Here, we report a three-component assembly that exploits the dual role of catechol to enable the modular synthesis of these motifs from readily available, bench-stable reactants. This method exhibits exceptional functional-group tolerance and provides access to a variety of synthetically demanding molecular architectures, including consecutive quaternary centers as well as vicinal aminoether and diamine fragments. This approach, therefore, represents a valuable supplement to the chemist's toolbox for α-tertiary alkylamines, offering streamlined routes to complex targets and significant possibilities in drug discovery.
