Casimir Force in Layered Materials and Control of the Stable Equilibrium.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Quantum interactions between nearly touching neutral interfaces lead to a measurable Casimir force, which is often assumed to be attractive. Our comprehensive computational analysis of atomic force microscopy and surface force apparatus measurements of the Casimir force between layered materials in solvents confirms that the Casimir interactions can give rise to a stable equilibrium. Given the excellent agreement with experiments for a range of materials, we extend the formalism to multiple-layer interfaces and investigate the effects of solvent and compositional changes on the Casimir equilibrium. We explain how the Casimir equilibrium can be tuned precisely and show that the scaling of the equilibrium distance with the thickness of the top layer is a controllable, solvent-dependent parameter. These findings have significant implications for the self-assembly of layered materials and design of future quantum entrapment experiments.
