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
Atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) has garnered widespread attention for the alleviation of freshwater scarcity. However, AWH still presents challenges in simultaneously achieving rapid adsorption-desorption, low-energy regeneration, and environmentally sustainable development. Herein, a biomimetic all-biomass double-layer sponge is prepared to spatially separate moisture capture from solar-driven desorption while integrating hydrovoltaic power generation (HG) for the co-production of water and electricity. Inspired by tree transpiration, the carboxylated wood scaffold loaded with LiCl mimics root-like moisture uptake, while the recycled demethylated lignin coated on the upper layer serves as a photothermal evaporation layer that drives efficient solar-induced desorption analogous to leaf-mediated sunlight absorption. The biomimetic double-layer structure enables efficient moisture absorption and desorption, with vertical humidity gradients guiding water through directional fiber microchannels and generating sustained flow potentials. Under 60% relative humidity (RH), 25 °C, and 1-sun illumination, the open-circuit voltage (
