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

Redox-mediated electrochemical DAC offers a promising, energy-efficient alternative to conventional thermal methods but faces challenges with the oxidative degradation of organic redox mediators in air. While multi-electrolyzer systems mitigate oxygen exposure and solvent loss, the use of common pH-independent redox limits further voltage reductions. To overcome the voltage limitation of pH-independent mediators in electrochemical DAC, this study introduces a new electrochemical DAC strategy utilizing a pH-dependent redox mediator, anthraquinone-2,7-disulfonic acid salt (AQDS), within a dual-electrolyzer system coupled with a hydrogen pump. The pH-dependent redox potential of AQDS lowers the electrolyzer voltage, enabling an actual energy consumption of 257 kJ mol
