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

Piezoelectric materials with high piezoelectric coefficients often exhibit low carrier concentrations, which hinders the generation of free charges for piezocatalytic processes. To address this, defect engineering has emerged as a promising approach to adjust the electronic structure and enhance the carrier concentration of piezocatalytic materials. However, the introduction of defects can negatively affect the piezoelectric performance by increasing charge screening and reducing domain wall mobility. In this work, we demonstrate that a high carrier concentration can be achieved without compromising the piezoelectric properties, by applying an external electric field to enhance polarization and rearrange oxygen defect dipoles. This poling process significantly improves both piezoelectric and piezocatalytic properties. Specifically, the effective piezoelectric coefficient of a polarised, oxygen-deficient Bi
