Tuning the gradient structure of highly breathable, permeable, directional water transport in bi-layered Janus fibrous membranes using electrospinning.
Article in RSC advances, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
In this paper, a novel bi-layered Janus fibrous electrospun membrane with robust moisture permeable, breathable and directional water transport properties is successfully fabricated and reported for the first time. This fibrous membrane consists of a thin inner layer of hydrophobic thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and a thick outer layer of super hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile (PAN). The PAN layer is coated with dopamine (PDA) to tailor the wettability. The subsequent TPU-PAN/PDA membrane demonstrates outstanding wettability and thickness gradients, which facilitate directional water transport from the TPU to the PAN/PDA layer and improve the WVT rate to 9065 g m
