Electrically weldable conductive elastomers.
Article in Science advances, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Flexible and stretchable electronic devices are subject to failure because of vulnerable circuit interconnections. We develop a low-voltage (1.5 to 4.5 V) and rapid (as low as 5 s) electric welding strategy to integrate both rigid electronic components and soft sensors in flexible circuits under ambient conditions. This is achieved through the design of conductive elastomers composed of borate ester polymers and conductive fillers, which can be self-welded and generate welding effects to various materials including metals, hydrogels, and other conductive elastomers. The welding effect is generated through the electrochemical reaction-triggered exposure of interfacial adhesive promotors or the cleavage/reformation of dynamic bonds. Our strategy can ensure both mechanical compliance and conductivity at the circuit interfaces and easily produce welding strengths in the kilopascal to megapascal range. The as-designed conductive elastomers in combination with the electric welding technique provide a robust platform for constructing standalone flexible and stretchable electronic devices that are detachable and assemblable on demand.
