Reconfigurable Orbital Electrowetting for Controllable Droplet Transport on Slippery Surfaces.
Article in Micromachines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The controllable transport of droplets on solid surfaces is crucial for many applications, from water harvesting to bio-analysis. Herein, we propose a novel droplet transport controlling method, reconfigurable orbital electrowetting (ROEW) on inclined slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS), which enables controllable transport and dynamic handling of droplets by non-contact reconfiguration of orbital electrodes. The flexible reconfigurability is attributed to the non-contact wettability modulation and reversibly deformable flexible electrodes. ROEW graphically customizes stable wettability pathways by real-time and non-contact printing of charge-orbit patterns on SLIPS to support the continuous transport of droplets. Benefiting from the fast erase-writability of charges and the movability of non-contact electrodes, ROEW enables reconfiguration of the wetting pathways by designing electrode shapes and dynamically switching electrode configurations, achieving controllable transport of various pathways and dynamic handling of droplet sorting and mixing. ROEW provides a new approach for reconfigurable, electrode-free arrays and reusable microfluidics.
