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

Structural supercapacitors hold promise to expand the energy capacity of a system by integrating load-bearing and energy-storage functions in a multifunctional structure, resulting in weight savings and safety improvements. Here, we develop strategies based on interfacial engineering to advance multifunctional efficiency. The structural electrodes were reinforced by coating carbon-fiber weaves with a uniquely stable conjugated redox polymer and reduced graphene oxide that raised pseudocapacitive capacitance and tensile strength. The solid polymer electrolyte was tuned to a gradient configuration, where it facilitated high ionic conductivity at the electrode-electrolyte interfaces and transitioned to a composition with high mechanical strength in the bulk for load support. The gradient design enabled the multilayer structural supercapacitors to reach state-of-the-art performance matching the level of monofunctional supercapacitors. In situ electrochemical-mechanical measurements established the device durability under mechanical loads. The structural supercapacitor was made into the hull of a model boat to demonstrate its multifunctionality.
