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

Electrode reactions are central to analytical chemistry and a green approach to chemical synthesis. Here, it is demonstrated that sacrificing electrode-electrolyte contact to microscale polymeric blocks creates fouled electrodes that outperform unobstructed ones. By tuning the dielectric's geometry, surface chemistry, and charge - and controlling electrode alignment relative to gravity - a paradigm shift in electrode design, from "clean" to "fouled," as a strategy to enhance reaction rates is proposed. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) microscopy reveals that strategic electrode fouling enhances mass transport, primarily through electrochemically actuated lateral density gradients. Engineered fouling induces flow velocities up to 0.4 cm s
