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

Li metal is highly sought after as a negative electrode material due to its high specific capacity and low electrode potential. However, the brittle solid electrolyte interphase and undesirable coulombic efficiency have severely hindered its commercial application. Here we propose a formation mechanism of stable solid electrolyte interphase based on the de-solvation of heteroalkali cations rather than the simple electrostatic shielding effect. Cesium trifluoroacetate (CsTFA), characterized by high electron-donor anion and weak solvent-binding heteroalkali cation, was incorporated into commercial electrolytes to foster an inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interphase. The de-solvation of absorbed Cs
