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

Research on two-dimensional (2D) materials has been dominated by crystals, while ultrathin amorphous solids have remained less developed. Accessing metallic glasses near the 2D limit poses challenges in synthesis while also requiring encapsulation against oxidation in air. Here, we discuss a strategy that addresses both issues. Sn intercalation of the graphene/Ru interface at temperatures above the melting point of bulk Sn produces an ultrathin Sn layer that, despite being sandwiched between crystals, resists crystallization down to room temperature. Control experiments on particles suggest such delayed crystallization during cooling from the melt as a common feature of nanoscale particles as well as ultrathin layers of Sn. For graphene, the intercalation by non-crystalline Sn has significant consequences, notably the recovery of the properties of a free-standing sp
