Article in Science advances, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Slippery lubricant-infused porous (SLIPS) and superhydrophobic surfaces have emerged as promising interfacial materials for various applications such as self-cleaning, anti-icing, and antifouling. Paradoxically, the coverage/screening of lubricant layer on underlying rough matrix endows functionalities impossible on superhydrophobic surfaces; however, the inherent flexibility in programming droplet manipulation through tailoring structure or surface charge gradient in underlying matrix is compromised. Here, we develop a class of slippery material that harnesses the dual advantages of both solid and lubricant. This is achieved by rationally constructing a photothermal-responsive composite matrix with real-time light-induced surface charge regeneration capability, enabling photocontrol of droplets in various working scenarios. We demonstrate that this light-induced charged slippery surface (LICS) exerts photocontrol of droplets with fast speed, long distance, antigravity motion, and directionally collective motion. We further extend the LICS to biomedical domains, ranging from specific morphological hydrogel bead formation in an open environment to biological diagnosis and analysis in closed-channel microfluidics.
