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

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) represent an outstanding clean energy alternative for next-generation power sources. The PEMFC's performance is mainly determined by the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) that occurs in its cathode Therefore, the use of electrocatalysts with high electrocatalytic activity and stability for improving the ORR has been a vital direction for the commercialization of PEMFCs. In this article, porous carbon nanofibers (PCNFs) based on a polyacrylonitrile/polymethyl methacrylate (PAN/PMMA) precursor were fabricated by electrospinning followed by carbonization; then, the PCNFs were mixed together with carbon black (CB) in different mass ratios as a hybrid support for Pt nanoparticles. Pt nanoparticles were deposited on the hybrid support by the ethylene glycol reduction method, and the obtained series of Pt/(PCNF + CB) were used as the oxygen reduction electrocatalyst in the cathode. Their electrocatalytic properties, as well as those of Pt/C as a reference, were investigated by cyclic voltammetry scanning (CV) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). The results explained that Pt/(PCNF + CB) showed a higher electrochemical activity area and half-wave potential when the PCNF/CB mass ratio was 3/2 than that of commercial Pt/C. Furthermore, the half-wave potential of Pt/(PCNF + CB) only decreased by 4 mV, which was 86 mV lower than that of commercial Pt/C (90 mV) after 2000 ADT cycles, indicating that the incorporation of PCNFs to form a hybrid support could result in corrosion resistance.
