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

Improving the elongation of intrinsically stretchable organic electronics typically prioritizes flexibility, which may increase the crack-onset strain at the expense of ductility. Here, we present a synergistic design that combines covalent crosslinking and silica filler reinforcement to construct a photoactive layer of organic photovoltaics (OPVs) with both elevated fracture strain and modulus. This interpenetrating network boosts the crack-onset strain to over 40% and raises the modulus by 5-fold to 1090 MPa. The silica filler promotes enhanced aggregation and molecular ordering in both donor and acceptor materials, enabling a power conversion efficiency exceeding 16% for intrinsically stretchable devices, with 80% of the initial efficiency retained under nearly 40% strain, which is one of the highest values reported to date for stretchable OPVs. These findings provide insights for developing stretchable and mechanically robust OPVs towards practical wearable applications.
