Dual-Responsive Yarn-Based Artificial Muscles for Adaptive Thermal Management.
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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In the face of global extreme weather and a changing climate, the development of adaptive textiles that provide thermoregulation by altering their structure has become increasingly critical. Such textiles require artificial muscles capable of fast, reliable motion to effectively respond to fluctuating environmental conditions. However, moisture-responsive yarn-based muscles, while promising candidates, are hindered by slow and uncontrollable actuation, limiting their practical application. Inspired by the conscious movement of skeletal muscle, we present a hybrid yarn-based artificial muscle (HYAM) that couples moisture actuation with electrothermal recovery. This design achieves a 128% increase in actuation stroke and a 136% increase in speed compared with pristine yarn-based muscles. Electrothermal recovery controllably shortens recovery and full-cycle times by 91% and 83%, respectively. Inspired by spindle-driven gates, HYAM flips dual-mode radiative curtains to switch between warming and cooling, showing promise for intelligent personalized thermal management.
