Designing supramolecular pastes by controlling host-guest dynamics in reconfigurable networks.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Stimuli-responsive phase transitions endow smart systems with adaptive functionalities, yet reversible paste-to-gel transitions remain largely unexplored. Here, we report a protonated trianglamine (TA)-based supramolecular paste, in which competitive supramolecular interactions-host-guest binding and electrostatic forces-drive the formation of a dynamic TA-clay-polymer ternary network with paste-like rheology. The material exhibits reversible paste-to-gel transitions under mild thermal stimuli, enabling shape reprogramming, temperature-triggered self-healing, and shape fixation. DFT calculations and molecular simulations reveal the molecular basis of the host-guest interactions in guiding network dynamics and healing behavior. Furthermore, incorporating graphene as conductive filler renders the paste functions as a stretchable, self-healing conductive wire, with potential in flexible electronics and responsive devices. This work introduces supramolecular pastes as a versatile class of smart materials that go beyond traditional hydrogels in structural adaptability and multifunctionality.
