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

Solution-processed few-layer graphene flakes, dispensed to rotating and sliding contacts via liquid dispersions, are gaining increasing attention as friction modifiers to achieve low friction and wear at technologically relevant interfaces. Vanishing friction states, i.e., superlubricity, have been documented for nearly-ideal nanoscale contacts lubricated by individual graphene flakes. However, there is no clear understanding if superlubricity might persist for larger and morphologically disordered contacts, as those typically obtained by incorporating wet-transferred solution-processed flakes into realistic microscale contact junctions. In this study, we address the friction performance of solution-processed graphene flakes by means of colloidal probe atomic force microscopy. We use a state-of-the-art additive-free aqueous dispersion to coat micrometric silica beads, which are then sled under ambient conditions against prototypical material substrates, namely, graphite and the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) MoS
