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

The pursuit of higher-efficiency solar cells has spurred the integration of perovskite materials with silicon-based technologies, yet achieving an efficient tandem architecture that leverages industrially textured silicon (ITS) with pyramid sizes larger than 2 μm remains a significant challenge. Such textured surfaces complicate the uniform coverage of the subsequent hole-selective layer deposition and the high-quality deposition of perovskites, ultimately causing significant contact losses in tandem devices. This study presents a tandem solar cell architecture that employs localized submicron contacts, enabled by silica (SiO
