Supramolecular Phase Change Materials for Spatiotemporally Thermal Energy Utilization.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Phase change materials (PCMs) are promising heat storage media to solve the intermittency and instability of renewable energy utilization. However, due to the spontaneous crystallization behavior and the accompanied release of latent heat upon cooling, the absorbed thermal energy can not be well stored at room temperature, which severely limits the applicability of PCMs in thermal energy storage. Herein, the long-term storage as well as switchable and controllable release of thermal energy using activated perethylated pillar[5]arene EtP5 (EtP5α) is reported for the first time. Through activation at 393 K, EtP5α can store thermal energy in the supercooled state at room temperature and release thermal energy by triggering cold crystallization at 370 K. High thermal energy storage capacity can be maintained for 20 thermal cycles and more than 365 days at room temperature, which is the PCMs that can store thermal energy for the longest time at room temperature.
