Tuning Contact Angles of Aqueous Droplets on Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces by Surfactants.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
Adsorption of small amphiphilic molecules occurs in various biological and technological processes, sometimes desired while other times unwanted (e.g., contamination). Surface-active molecules preferentially bind to interfaces and affect their wetting properties. We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the adsorption of short-chained alcohols (simple surfactants) to the water-vapor interface and solid surfaces of various polarities. With a theoretical analysis, we derive an equation for the adsorption coefficient, which scales exponentially with the molecular surface area and the surface wetting coefficient and is in good agreement with the simulation results. We apply the outcomes to aqueous sessile droplets containing surfactants, where the competition of surfactant adsorptions to both interfaces alters the contact angle in a nontrivial way. The influence of surfactants is the strongest on very hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces, whereas droplets on moderately hydrophilic surfaces are less affected.
