Local Anodic Oxidation of Graphene: The Role of Number of Layers, Load Force, and Substrate.
Article in ACS omega, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Local anodic oxidation has become a convenient technique for fabricating graphene oxide nanostructures in fundamental research (e.g., nanoelectronics). The process is typically controlled by tip-sample voltage, scanning speed, relative humidity, and tip characteristics (e.g., tip radius). The role of other parameters, such as the number of layers, load force, and graphene-substrate adhesion, is discussed in this paper. It is shown by atomic force microscopy, Kelvin probe force microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy that the oxidation of graphene is achievable only under specific conditions: low pulling force and sufficiently strong adhesion of graphene to its substrate. Such conditions ensure the stability of graphene on the surface and the proper formation of the water meniscus, which serves as a source of oxidizing ions, resulting in a reproducible oxidation process. Failure to comply with these conditions may lead to the formation of structures other than oxides (e.g., removal of graphene or the formation of air/water cavities under graphene), which is also demonstrated.
