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

Water-based lubricants provide lubrication of rubbing surfaces in many technical, biological, and physiological applications. The structure of hydrated ion layers adsorbed on solid surfaces that determine the lubricating properties of aqueous lubricants is thought to be invariable in hydration lubrication. However, we prove that the ion surface coverage dictates the roughness of the hydration layer and its lubricating properties, especially under subnanometer confinement. We characterize different hydration layer structures on surfaces lubricated by aqueous trivalent electrolytes. Two superlubrication regimes are observed with friction coefficients of 10
