Multiscale interface engineering enables strong and water resistant wood bonding.
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
The growing use of timber in construction has created an urgent need for high-performing engineered wood. Laminating timber facilitates production of structural components, but strong interfacial bonding is essential for engineered wood to outperform solid wood. Here we introduce a method for achieving strong wood bonding using an ionic liquid-dissolved cellulose solution. At the bonding interface, the dissolved cellulose fills the lumina and entangles with the wood cell wall, forming a dense cellulose network interconnecting with wood upon regeneration in water. Concurrent hot-pressing forms a permanently interlocked structure of wood cells. The multiscale bonded interface is water resistant with a shear strength over 20 MPa, nearly twice that of solid wood. This work presents an eco-friendly, high-performing wood bonding mechanism with promising applications in engineered wood products.
