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

Two-dimensional rhombohedral boron nitride (rBN) has emerged as a promising sliding ferroelectric material for high-density, fast-speed and non-volatile memories. However, the batch production of ferroelectric rBN wafers has remained a critical challenge due to the thermodynamic instability of the rhombohedral phase and the inherent difficulties in maintaining consistent growth kinetics. Here we report a step-templated interfacial epitaxy strategy that enables the reproducible fabrication of 4-inch rBN wafers from nickel-boron films sputtered on the stepped sapphires. Comprehensive structural characterizations across multiple scales confirm the high phase purity and batch-to-batch consistent quality of produced rBN wafers. The intrinsic sliding ferroelectricity is verified in a unified ferroelectric field-effect transistor (FeFET), which exhibits ultrafast switching speed (at the nanosecond scale), high fatigue resistance (>2 × 10
