Thermo-Osmosis in Charged Nanochannels: Effects of Surface Charge and Ionic Strength.
Article in ACS applied materials & interfaces, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Thermo-osmosis refers to fluid migration due to the temperature gradient. The mechanistic understanding of thermo-osmosis in charged nano-porous media is still incomplete, while it is important for several environmental and energy applications, such as low-grade waste heat recovery, wastewater recovery, fuel cells, and nuclear waste storage. This paper presents results from a series of molecular dynamics simulations of thermo-osmosis in charged silica nanochannels that advance the understanding of the phenomenon. Simulations with pure water and water with dissolved NaCl are considered. First, the effect of surface charge on the sign and magnitude of the thermo-osmotic coefficient is quantified. This effect was found to be mainly linked to the structural modifications of an aqueous electrical double layer (EDL) caused by the nanoconfinement and surface charges. In addition, the results illustrate that the surface charges reduce the self-diffusivity and thermo-osmosis of interfacial liquid. The thermo-osmosis was found to change direction when the surface charge density exceeds -0.03C · m
