Scalable Wettability Modification of Aluminum Surface through Single-Shot Nanosecond Laser Processing.
Article in Nanomaterials (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Conversion of a regular metal surface to a superhydrophobic one has great appeal because of the wide range of potential applications such as anti-fouling, anti-corrosion, and anti-icing. One promising technique is to modify surface wettability by laser processing to form nano-micro hierarchical structures with various patterns, such as pillars, grooves, and grids, followed by an aging process in the air or additional chemical processes. Surface processing is typically a lengthy process. Herein, we demonstrate a facile laser technique that converts the surface wettability of aluminum from inherently hydrophilic to hydrophobic and superhydrophobic with single-shot nanosecond laser irradiation. A single shot covers a fabrication area of approximately 19.6 mm
