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

Despite its ultrahigh theoretical capacity, silicon anodes for lithium-ion batteries suffer from severe capacity decay caused by over 300% volume changes during cycling. While Si-Ge alloying and spherical nanostructuring have been demonstrated to improve ionic/electronic transport and mechanical resilience, scalable synthesis of homogeneous, sub-150 nm SiGe nanospheres from low-cost precursors remains challenging. Here, we report a hybrid plasma-spraying physical vapor deposition (PS-PVD) process that directly converts metallurgical-grade Si and Ge powders into phase-pure Si
