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

Whether a droplet slides or not on inclined solid surface is mainly influenced by a balance between the adhesion force at contact area and the gravitational force exerted on the droplet. Especially as the adhesion force is a key parameter for the determination of the sliding behavior of droplets. The adhesion force is mainly estimated by experimental observation for the sliding motion of the droplet. However, at present it is unknown whether the adhesion force is a constant value regardless of the droplet size or not. In the present study, focused on the onset for sliding of water-ethanol binary mixture droplets on inclined solid surface, experimental investigation on the sliding droplets is performed by considering the droplet volumes ranging from 7 to 600 μL in order to understand the effect of the size of the droplet on the adhesive property. The results are discussed using the existing analytical models. From the results, it is found that the adhesion force increases in the case of large droplet volume, while the force reaches constant value in the case of small droplet volume. This difference is related to the degree of the droplet shape deformation, which leads to a change in the contact angle. Finally, a simple empirical model for the adhesion force including the size effect is proposed.
