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

It is agreed that low mass transfer and poor reaction kinetics are the main reasons behind the low power density of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Microscale MFCs can introduce a marvelous solution for the mass transfer dilemma. However, the volumetric power density and coulombic efficiency of present microscale MFCs are still limited due to the poor reaction kinetics. The size, shape, chemical properties and material of the electrodes are essential parameters controlling the reaction kinetics. In this study, a 3D carbon nanofiber disk is introduced as an effective anode for a single-chamber air-cathode micro-sized MFC as it improved the reaction kinetics. The proposed electrode was fabricated by a judicious combination of the electrospinning technique and thermal treatment. Owing to the intercalation of the microorganisms in the carbon nanofiber skeleton, compared to many previous reports, high power and current densities of 8.1 Wm
