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

Deep eutectic solvent (DES), when used as the continuous phase of eutectogels, can significantly improve their electrical and mechanical properties due to its excellent conductivity, freeze resistance and chemical stability. The development of eutectogels effectively solves the key limitations of traditional hydrogels and organogels, such as low-temperature freezing, high-temperature volatilization, and organic solvent leakage. It also realizes the collaborative optimization of environmental friendliness and comprehensive performance, which makes it show broad application prospects in the field of flexible sensing. This review summarizes the design principles, material selection, sensing mechanisms, and flexible sensing applications of eutectogels. By examining the design of eutectogels, the selection of DES, and the synthesis of the gel network, it provides a theoretical basis for the development of eutectogel-based sensor devices. A detailed description of the sensing mechanism is provided to elucidate the signal generation and transition in eutectogels toward the purpose of the practical applications. Finally, the application prospects of eutectogels for high-performance sensors and detection devices are discussed. Additionally, we provide a theoretical support for their structural design, performance optimization, and practical application.
