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

Electrospinning is a well-established and widely adopted process for producing fine and continuous nanofiber networks. Electrospun nanofibers have gained significant attention owing to their advantages, including nanoscale fiber uniformity, tunable pore size with bimodal distribution, and versatility in integrating various inorganic and organic compositions. Recently, considerable efforts have been made to align nanofibers and enhance their functionality with improved mechanical properties, faster charge transport, and more efficient mass transport in well-organized spatial structures. This mini-review highlights the fabrication of precisely aligned nanofibers using insulating block-assisted electrospinning. By manipulating the electric field between the nozzle and substrate, combined with a moving substrate, insulating block-assisted electrospinning enables the biaxial alignment of the nanofibers. This review discusses recent advancements in insulating block-assisted alignment techniques and explores the applications of these aligned nanofibers in the environmental and energy fields, including air filtration media, lithium-ion battery electrodes, hybrid gel polymer electrolytes for aqueous batteries, and reinforced composite membranes for fuel cells. In addition, the perspectives associated with the extension of insulating block-driven aligned nanofiber applications to a wide range of fields and industries is summarized.
