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

Wetting highly compliant surfaces can cause them to deform. Atomically thin materials, such as graphene, can have exceptionally small bending rigidities, leading to elasto-capillary lengths of a few nanometers. Using large-scale molecular dynamics (MD), we have studied the wetting and deformation of graphene due to nanometer-sized water droplets, focusing on the wetting angle near the vesicle transition. Recent continuum theories for wetting of flexible membranes reproduce our MD results qualitatively well. However, we find that when the curvature is large at the triple-phase contact line, the wetting angle increases with decreasing tension. This is in contrast to existing macroscopic theories but can be amended by allowing for a variable wetting angle.
