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.
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
Alkali-metal incorporation is widely employed to improve the performance and stability of organic halide perovskites, yet the underlying doping mechanisms and diffusion pathways remain poorly understood. Here, we use ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy to probe the evolution of the electronic structure of CH3NH3PbX3 (X = I, Br, and Cl) single crystals upon potassium and cesium deposition. We observe two distinct regimes governed by halide chemistry: facile bulk diffusion in CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3PbBr3, in contrast to surface-confined accumulation in CH3NH3PbCl3, arising from kinetically hindered alkali migration in the chloride perovskite. Temperature-dependent measurements of the doped crystals further detect opposite valence band shifts for CH3NH3PbBr3 relative to CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3PbCl3, highlighting the role of surface termination and charge redistribution. Notably, alkali metal deposition induces substantial energy level shifts while leaving band dispersions largely unchanged, indicating a predominantly interfacial doping mechanism. These results establish a direct link among halide composition, diffusion behavior, and electronic structure evolution, providing microscopic insight into alkali-metal interactions in perovskites.
