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

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide a molecular platform for tuning electrode interfaces in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). To examine substituent effects in pyrene-derived phosphonic acids, we designed six derivatives of (2-(pyren-1-yl)ethyl)phosphonic acid (py3) and evaluated their gas-phase electronic structures, reorganization energies, predicted packing motifs, Marcus-Hush hopping descriptors, and adsorption on indium tin oxide (ITO) using density functional theory. Methyl and phenyl substitution increased the calculated intermolecular transfer integrals in the predicted packing models, whereas hydroxy substitution increased molecular polarity and reorganization energy. Adsorption calculations revealed substituent-dependent binding and charge redistribution on pristine and oxygen-deficient ITO. SAM/ITO DOS/PDOS analysis further showed that the near-Fermi electronic structure remains predominantly ITO-derived, while oxygen vacancies redistribute spectral weight on neighboring In atoms in a substituent- and energy-window-dependent manner. DOS/PDOS calculations for molecule/FAPbI
