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

Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted increasing attention as safe, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly alternatives to lithium-ion batteries for large-scale energy storage. Among various cathode materials for Zn batteries, polyaniline (PANI) is a potential material that presents benefits such as high conductivity and pseudocapacitive behavior. However, it often suffers from limited cycling stability and structural degradation during repeated charge-discharge processes. Here, in situ electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM)-Raman technique is combined to understand the Zn storage behavior in PANI wherein limited Zn insertion is observed along with detachment of the polymer from the substrate. Through anion doping of PANI, the structural stability is enhanced, and the overall Zn cycling capability is improved. Ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies further reveal that doping of PANI significantly reduces the oxidation of PANI, which leads to an improved battery performance. The doped-PANI shows a high specific capacity of 310 and 235 mAh g
