Water drives sequential breakdown of dynamic nanodomains in deep eutectic electrolytes.
Article in Chemical science, 2026. 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
The rational design of functional materials hinges on understanding molecular interactions in complex hydrogen-bonded liquids like deep eutectic electrolytes (DEEs), where molecular structure governs ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability. Hydration levels critically influence these properties, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive, hindering systematic design. Using multidimensional NMR, 2D infrared spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations, we studied choline chloride-malic acid DEEs at varying hydration levels. We show a sequential, component-specific breakdown of molecular nanodomains that overturns dilution models. This process proceeds in distinct stages: water first disrupts ionic domains at moderate hydration levels, while hydrogen-bonded organic networks persist until higher water content. These insights enabled us to design a DEE with enhanced electrolyte performance, achieving ionic conductivity of 13.0 mS cm
