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

We report a difluorocarbene-enabled, diastereoselective synthesis of α-fluoro-γ-lactams from readily accessible β-aminoketones and inexpensive, commercially available ethyl bromodifluoroacetate (EBDFA). Compared to established routes to this medicinally relevant motif, our strategy avoids the use of costly electrophilic fluorinating or deoxyfluorinating reagents, highlighting difluorocarbene as a versatile C1 and F building block. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that cyclization is the stereodetermining step, with observed diastereomeric ratios governed by Curtin-Hammett kinetics. In addition to activating EBDFA, the K
