Small-Scale Insight into Uniform Deformability and Softening Resistance of Refractory High-Entropy Alloy.
Article in Nano letters, 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
Owing to the outstanding softening resistance and thermal stability of BCC-structured refractory high-entropy alloys (HEAs), their unique deformation-induced defect structures merit investigation. Therefore, this study evaluated the mechanical properties and deformation behaviors of W-based low- to high-entropy alloys at various temperatures and orientations using nanoindentation and microcompression, complemented by post-mortem TEM and atomistic simulations to observe dislocation populations and their evolution. Results reveal that HEAs exhibit reduced elastic and plastic anisotropy while retaining high-temperature strength. With increasing compositional complexity, planar slip and abrupt stress drops were progressively replaced by homogeneous flow and smoother serrations. Severe lattice distortion promoted dislocation nucleation but impeded long-range glide, enabling cooperative edge and screw dislocation activity that sustained strength and work hardening across temperatures.
