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

Solid-state sodium metal batteries with inorganic electrolytes have long been heralded as candidates for post-lithium-ion batteries. However, challenges including interfacial instability and air sensitivity continue to impede their path to commercialization. Here, we propose an interfacial healing strategy for solid-state sodium metal batteries by utilizing an electroinitiated accelerated polymerization process facilitated by charged microdroplets to increase the polymerization rate by 21.4 times. We show that the charge-driven electrowetting enables efficient coating layers at interfaces, which impart prolonged air stability and preferentially fill voids and cracks, further constructing stable interfaces with improved compatibility and preventing dendrite-induced crack propagation. A higher critical current density of 6.8 mA cm
