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

Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) are promising next-generation energy storage solutions, but face challenges in achieving stable performance across wide temperature ranges. While sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) offers advantages over traditional sulfur positive electrodes, its compatibility with ether electrolytes remains problematic. This work introduces a temperature-resistant, anion-rich solvation structure using an asymmetric ether solvent, ethyl butyl ether, to enable Li | |SPAN batteries with a wide operational range of 100 °C ( - 40 to 60 °C). The tailored electrolyte fosters a bi-layer interphase on Li negative electrode, which is more effective than the conventional mosaic interphase in suppressing dendrite growth and electrochemically inactive Li accumulation. Concurrently, it builds a dual-layer interphase on the SPAN positive electrode, enabling rapid Li
