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

In advanced applications such as flexible displays, reusing components is essential for achieving sustainability. However, the removal of acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), which bond these components, remains a major challenge due to residue formation and the non-degradable C─C backbone. Here, the development of new acrylic PSA alternatives for foldable displays is reported by introducing ultraviolet (UV)-triggered debondability, degradability through lipoic acid analogs, and a visible-light-curing process. PSAs composed of 60 mol% lipoic acid ethyl ester (LpEt) and 3 mol% UV-cross-linkable benzophenone-functionalized acrylic monomers exhibit viscoelastic properties comparable to those of conventional acrylic PSAs, while also enable clean removal from substrates after use. Following removal, the PSAs efficiently degrade into small molecular units in the presence of a green reductant or can be recovered as monomers under controlled conditions. This strategy offers a promising pathway toward sustainable PSAs, enables the recycling of valuable substrates from flexible display modules while simultaneously allows adhesive recovery, thus presents a viable alternative to conventional acrylic adhesives.
