From Structural Design to Molecular Mechanisms: The Evolution of Solar Evaporators.
Review in Chem & bio engineering, 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
To address global water scarcity, solar-driven interfacial evaporation has emerged as a promising solution that minimizes energy consumption and environmental impact by harvesting solar energy directly at the air-water interface. Recent advances show that performance breakthroughs depend on the synergistic interplay between macroscopic structural designs and molecular-level mechanisms. This review traces the evolution of solar evaporators, from buoyancy-driven floating architectures and enhanced water transport enabled by capillary and osmotic pressure differences, to state-of-the-art regulation of water association states through hydrophobic interaction, hydrogen-bonding, and electrostatic interaction. These strategies accelerate mass transport, optimize solar energy utilization, lower evaporation enthalpy, and enhance long-term stability, achieving water transport rates up to 0.091 g min
