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

In operando Raman investigations of iridium-based oxygen evolution (OER) catalysts in water electrolysis offer insights into catalytically relevant species and pathways, enabling optimization towards effective use of iridium. This work builds upon existing academic studies by utilizing industrially relevant proton exchange membrane catalyst-coated membrane electrode assemblies in an applicable cell design. To overcome challenges in spectral analysis, a methodology for spectral deconvolution with a focus on stability and validity was developed and verified by two-dimensional correlation analysis. Based on in operando studies during potential-dependent electrolysis and catalyst relaxation at open circuit potential, the oxygen evolution reaction pathway on iridium-based catalyst-coated membrane electrode assemblies was found to involve a concerted redox reaction of both iridium and oxygen. Formation of the active species occurs from iridium oxo-hydroxides and crystalline IrO
