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

Direct estimation of the reaction environment, e.g., local pH at the anode side of a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) of zero gap electrolyzer, is essential to understand possible key factors, which are influencing the sustainable operation of industrial electrolyzers. Herein, we demonstrate a scanning electrochemical microscopy-based strategy to measure the local pH in the close vicinity of an operating MEA. Local proton concentration changes during the oxygen evolution reaction were monitored in the nonzero gap electrolyzer and MEA systems. The measurements constitute a methodology to evaluate the ion transport efficiency of the MEA. The strategy was extended to investigate the effect of an activation process, buffering of the electrolyte, and poisoning effect on the change in proton transport efficiency. This novel strategy enables the estimation of the actual pH of the MEA system during operation and is of great relevance in understanding the process conditions during sustainable fuel production.
