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

Matching energy input to water supply is key to efficient solar-driven interfacial water evaporation, but conventional interfacial solar steam generators (ISSGs) fail to adapt to diurnal solar flux fluctuations, thus hindering the achievement of dynamic hydrothermal balance. Inspired by marine octopuses, a fabric-based dual-interface solar evaporator (PDMS-CFs-CFF-SF) is developed by integrating 3D knitting and electrostatic flocking, enabling adaptation to light intensity changes. When light intensity exceeds the upper interface's water supply capacity and heat accumulates, hydrophobic spacer yarns facilitate the directional transfer of excess heat to the lower interface, thereby triggering dual-interface evaporation. The lower interface, leveraging its large-pore structure, regulates moisture content to match the transferred excess heat. Moreover, the octopus-inspired structure increases the evaporation area, enriches vapor escape channels, enhances thermal insulation performance, and adapts to sunlight incident at different angles.
