A Metal Hydride Compressor Concept using Hydrogen as a Heat Transfer Fluid.
Article in Communications engineering, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Metal hydride hydrogen compressors have been explored as an alternative to mechanical hydrogen compressors since the first patents were filed in the 1970s. As heat engines, their productivity notably depends on the achievable heat transfer rate, which is limited by the pressure-bearing walls separating the heat transfer fluid from the reactive metal hydride beds and their effective thermal conductivity. Here we present and analyze an alternative metal hydride compressor system that uses hydrogen as a heat transfer fluid in direct convective contact with the metal hydride material. Following this principle, we demonstrate how an integrated compressor can be designed and how it behaves at both system and metal hydride bed levels. Simulations of a system operating at 10 - 90 °C indicate that specific productivities of 300 L
