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

The rise of ceramic aerogel offers traditional ceramics a new window. Alongside the emerging prospects, what is open to explore includes the elegant design of a ceramic aerogel with tailorable inner organizations, what would occur when complex hierarchy exists in such an already intricate system, and how the properties get influenced as the complexity fades. Borrowing the wisdom from supramolecular world, we exquisitely transform BN aerogel from a complex hierarchy to a flatten microstructure based on solvent-induced morphology switch of its supramolecular precursor gel. Such reduction in structural hierarchy has insignificant effect on the thermal conductivity (∼0.027 W/(m·K)) but shifts the wettability from hydrophobicity to hydrophilicity and occasions nearly 3-fold difference in ion adsorption rate, as exemplified by lead ions. This work may promote the understanding of special hierarchy existing in delicate systems and inspire other attempts to harness the functionality of aerogels by manipulating structural hierarchy.
