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

The low mechanical strength and insufficient lithium-ion conductivity of solid-electrolyte interphase will incur inhomogeneous lithium deposition and eventually cause battery failure, hindering practical application of lithium metal batteries. Combining multiple characterization techniques and COMSOL simulation, here we report that the commonly-adopted constant current charge protocol would result in formation of highly porous lithium metal negative electrode, leading to severe parasitic reactions. To ameliorate this problem, we propose a middle peak current charge protocol with a peak current in the middle of charging step, which could guide the nucleation and growth of densified lithium deposition with the derived solid-electrolyte interphase possessing significantly improved mechanical strength and Li
