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

Organic electrode materials represent an attractive alternative to inorganic cathodes because they are based on abundant elements and offer tunable electrochemical performance through molecular design. Among them, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) incorporating redox-active organic linkers have attracted considerable attention as electrode materials for metal-ion batteries. Herein, a series of isoreticular redox-active MOFs based on pyromellitic diimide (PMDI), naphthalene diimide (NDI), and perylene diimide (PDI) linkers were investigated as cathode materials for lithium-ion storage to elucidate the influence of arylene diimide aromaticity on electrochemical performance. Among the Zn-XDI (XDI = PMDI, NDI, PDI) MOFs, Zn-PDI and Zn-NDI exhibited excellent cycling stability, retaining 98% and 87% of their initial capacities after 500 cycles at 2C, respectively, whereas Zn-PMDI showed poor capacity retention, highlighting the importance of the aromatic core in stabilizing reduced states. Post-mortem X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), powder X-ray diffraction and Raman studies confirmed the preservation of the framework structure of Zn-PDI and Zn-NDI after extended cycling. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that increasing the aromatic core size in the Zn-XDI series stabilizes the reduced states, lowers the LUMO energy, enhances electron affinity, and facilitates Li
