Facile Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Surfaces with Hierarchical Structures via Water Vapor Condensation.
Article in Small methods, 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
Surfaces with a water contact angle greater than 150° are defined as superhydrophobic surfaces, exhibiting characteristics such as water repellency, self-cleaning ability, and extremely low friction with water droplets. Most superhydrophobic surfaces possess micro- or nanoscale hierarchical structures; however, the fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces typically requires considerable time and cost. Herein, we report a facile method for fabricating hierarchical structures via condensation of water vapor to address these problems. The size of the hierarchical structures can be controlled by adjusting the condensation time. The hierarchical structures via water vapor condensation exhibit the features of superhydrophobic surfaces, as confirmed by measurements of contact angle, sliding angle, and droplet impact behavior. As a feasible application, a self-cleaning test is also carried out. The facile fabrication method in this study is expected to be easily applicable for hierarchical structure formation and further extended to large-area sample production.
