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

Membrane-based separations constitute energy-lean alternatives to olefin/paraffin purification, however, it remains challenging to translate sub-ångström discrimination into defect-free, large-area membranes via manufacturing-compatible routes. In this work, we realize a multiscale engineering design that strategically integrates engineered metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with renewable, low-cost biomass-derived polymers via continuous-flow processing, followed by semi-batch carbonization into mixed-matrix carbon hollow fiber membranes. Controlled molecular entanglement imparts robust colloidal stability and interfacial cohesion, enabling thermal conversion of the monolithic precursor into contiguous inorganic-inorganic carbon nanophases. The intergrown, triphasic heterogeneous nanodomain enables fast ethylene transport and ultra-precise ethylene/ethane discrimination (C
