1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The industrial application of modified ion-exchange membranes is limited by complex, discontinuous ex-situ processes. This study introduces an in-situ electro-assembly strategy that enables the direct fabrication of a selective layer within an electrodialysis stack without disassembly. By utilizing a programmed current reversal to orchestrate the sequential deposition of polyethyleneimine (PEI), glutaraldehyde cross-linking, and polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) adsorption, we achieve meticulous interfacial engineering on a commercial cation exchange membrane. Comprehensive characterization confirms the successful construction of a hydrophilic, charge-tuned multilayer, which enhances ion transport kinetics and raises the limiting current density. This method culminates in a membrane with an exceptional Li
