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 increasing global energy demand and the declining efficiency of conventional oil recovery methods underscore the urgency for advanced enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques. While chemical EOR enhances recovery, traditional surfactants face limitations such as high retention, thermal instability, and poor performance in high-salinity environments. Imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as a promising alternative due to their superior thermal stability, tunable interfacial properties, and potential for recyclability. This review evaluates their role in EOR, focusing on interfacial tension (IFT) reduction, wettability alteration, emulsification, viscosity control, and crude oil interactions. Long-chain ILs like [C
