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 adsorption geometry of functional molecules largely determines the interfacial behaviour in various applications like catalysis, photovoltaics and molecular electronics. Understanding adsorbate orientation has remained a challenge due to lack of suitable in situ methods, thus hindering controlled device behaviour. Here, a combined tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulation approach elucidates the prevailing controversy about the adsorption geometry of showcase trimesic acid, one of the most widely used functional organic linkers, on Cu. We find that subtle energy differences in adsorbate-substrate-solvent interactions on the scale of 0.25 eV are decisive for the molecular orientation at solid/liquid versus solid/gas interfaces, emphasising the strength of combined theoretical and experimental quantitative in situ nanoscale characterisation for the rational design of functional molecular interfaces.
