Effect of pH Value on the Electrical Properties of PEDOT:PSS-Based Fiber Mats.
Article in ACS engineering Au, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Nanofiber mats containing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) hold potential for use in wearable electronic applications. Unfortunately, the use of PEDOT is often limited by the acidic nature of polystyrenesulfonate (PSS), a common dispersant for PEDOT. In this study, we explored the impact of increasing the pH value of PEDOT:PSS/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) precursors on the morphological and electrical properties of the resultant electrospun fibers. Specifically, electrospun nanofibers were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, bright-field microscopy, and two-point probe measurements. We discovered that neutral and even slightly basic PEDOT:PSS/PVA precursors could be electrospun without affecting the resultant electrical properties. While cross-linking effectively stabilized the fibers, their electrical properties decreased after exposure to solutions with pH values between 5 and 11, as well as with agitated soap washing tests. Additionally, we report that the fiber mats maintained their stability after more than 3000 cycles of voltage application. These findings suggest that PEDOT:PSS-based fibers hold potential for use in wearable textile and sensor applications, where long-term durability is needed.
