Operando visualisation of lithium plating by ultrasound imaging of battery cells.
Article in Nature communications, 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
While developing battery cells, the achievement of fast-charging capability is heavily dependent on avoiding metallic plating on the anode surface (i.e., lithium plating in lithium-ion cells). However, this objective hinges on the effectiveness of plating detection. Currently, measurement techniques are either inadequate in providing spatial, temporal, or causal information, incur high costs when employing, e.g., neutron imaging, or are lengthy due to destructive post-mortem examinations that additionally lack operando data. In this work, we demonstrate an ultrasound imaging method for operando visualization of the interior of a multi-layer pouch battery cell. Here we show that this method can non-invasively visualize the formation and stripping of lithium plating during cycling. Extensive reference electrode studies and ex-situ analysis verify the effectiveness of our method for plating detection. Ultimately, this work enables researchers and industry to significantly accelerate the development of new cell technologies and their optimized utilization.
