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

Achieving Coulombic efficiency values greater than 99.9% for Li metal cells is considered one of the most important requirements for the technology development of long cycle life in energy-dense Li metal batteries. However, owing to the volume changes in Li metal electrodes and Li reservoir loss during battery operation, this requirement has not yet been realized in Li metal cells. Here, to overcome these issues, we propose a zero-volume-change, complete-sealing design for a nanoengineered composite material consisting of multilayer reduced graphene oxide and zinc oxide. This composite electrode material can accommodate Li metal without showing negligible volume changes while promoting the formation of an inorganic-rich solid-electrolyte interphase. When the nanoengineered Li/reduced graphene oxide/zinc oxide electrode is tested in combination with a Li metal electrode in a coin cell configuration using non-aqueous electrolyte solutions, Li plating/stripping Coulombic efficiency values ranging from 99.9900% to 99.9999%, for almost 2,000 cycles at a current density of 1 mA cm
