Controlled electrochemical surface exfoliation of graphite pencil electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors.
Article in RSC advances, 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
A controlled surface exfoliation method for graphite pencil electrodes using an environmentally friendly, low cost and scalable electrochemical process is reported. A simple direct current power supply in a neutral medium is used for inducing graphene formation on the electrode surface in a controlled manner. The electrochemical properties of the surface exfoliated electrode are characterized, displaying a >300× increase in the electrochemical surface area and >50× decrease in the electrode resistance after exfoliation. The surface graphene layer is characterized using electron microscopy, Raman, infrared, X-ray photoelectron, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopies and X-ray diffractometry showing a fully exfoliated surface, formation of surface defects and mild surface graphene oxidation while maintaining an intact graphitic crystal structure. The surface exfoliated electrode is tested as a supercapacitor demonstrating more than 2 orders of magnitude improvement over non-exfoliated electrode in both 3-electrode and 2-electrode setups and achieving a high areal capacitance of ∼54 mF cm
