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

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries offer a sustainable alternative to lithium-ion batteries due to their abundance, safety, and eco-friendliness. However, challenges like hydrogen evolution and uncontrolled diffusion of H⁺, Zn²⁺, and SO₄²⁻ in the electrolyte lead to the dendrite formation, side reactions, and reduced Coulombic efficiency for Zn nucleation. Here, to simultaneously regulate the diffusion of cations and anions in the electrolyte, an ion-separation accelerating channel is constructed by introducing layer-by-layer self-assembly of a flocculant poly(allylamine hydrochloride) and its tautomer poly(acrylic acid). The dual-ion channels, created by strong electrostatic interactions between carboxylate anions and ammonia cations, block SO
