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

Aqueous zinc (Zn) metal batteries (AZBs) have emerged as highly promising candidates for large-scale energy storage systems because of their inherent safety and cost-effectiveness. However, their practical implementation remains constrained by parasitic side reactions and uncontrolled dendrite growth at the metallic Zn anode. Herein, a microenvironment-controlled additive strategy is proposed via employing phytic acid-functionalized montmorillonite (MPA) nanosheets as electrolyte additives for highly durable AZBs. The MPA nanosheets spontaneously assemble onto the surface of the Zn anode through interfacial self-adsorption, effectively suppressing parasitic reactions. Moreover, the regulation of interfacial chemistry enhances the zincophilic characteristic, enabling precise modulation of Zn
