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

Electrochemical reactors utilizing flow-through electrodes (FTEs) provide an attractive path toward the efficient utilization of electrical energy, but their commercial viability and ultimate adoption hinge on attaining high currents to drive productivity and cost competitiveness. Conventional FTEs composed of random, porous media provide limited opportunity for architectural control and engineering of microscale transport. Alternatively, the design freedom engendered by additively manufacturing FTEs yields additional opportunities to further drive performance via flow engineering. Through experiment and validated continuum computation we analyze the mass transfer in three-dimensional (3D)-printed porous FTEs with periodic lattice structures and show that, in contrast to conventional electrodes, the mesoscopic length scales in 3D-printed electrodes lead to an increase in the mass correlation exponent as inertial flow effects dominate. The inertially enhanced mass transport yields mass transfer coefficients that exceed previously reported 3D-printed FTEs by 10 to 100 times, bringing 3D-printed FTE performance on par with conventional materials.
