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

Performance improvement is the cornerstone to facilitate the healthy and sustainable development of photovoltaic industry. Meanwhile, the aesthetics of solar panels becomes growingly concerned with the continuously improved requirements from customers. Accordingly, developing the modules having both a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) and better aesthetic appearance is increasingly important. The structural advantage of back contact (BC) silicon solar cells, having a grid-line-free front surface, endows them with an exceptionally aesthetic appearance and the highest theoretical PCE among single-junction silicon solar cells. Fully utilizing these structural features is crucial for achieving high performance and gaining an insight into their industrial potential. Here, a facile double-sided light management strategy, incorporating hierarchical micro/submicrotextured pyramids on the sunny side and nanostructured polished surface in the rear gap region to reduce optical losses and improve appearance uniformity, has been developed on tunnel oxide passivated back contact (TBC) solar cells, to create a record total-area PCE of 27.03% for 350.0 cm
