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

Lithium sulfur (LiS) batteries possess high theoretical capacity and energy density, holding great promise for next generation electronics and electrical vehicles. However, the LiS batteries development is hindered by the shuttle effect and sluggish conversion kinetics of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). Designing highly polar materials such as metal oxides (MOs) with moderate adsorption and effective catalytic activity is essential to overcome the above issues. To design efficient MOs catalysts, it is critical and necessary to understand the adsorption mechanism and associated catalytic processes of LiPSs. However, most reviews still lack a comprehensive investigation of the basic mechanism and always ignore their in-depth relationship. In this review, a systematic analysis toward understanding the underlying adsorption and catalytic mechanism in LiS chemistry as well as discussion of the typical works concerning MOs electrocatalysts are provided. Moreover, to improve the sluggish "adsorption-diffusion-conversion" process caused by the low conductive nature of MOs, oxygen vacancies and heterostructure engineering are elucidated as the two most effective strategies. The challenges and prospects of MOs electrocatalysts are also provided in the last section. The authors hope this review will provide instructive guidance to design effective catalyst materials and explore practical possibilities for the commercialization of LiS batteries.
