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

Achieving Zn anode stability is critical for advancing commercialization of aqueous zinc-ion batteries. However, the instability of zinc metal anodes driven by dendritic growth, hydrogen evolution, and interfacial passivation remains a critical obstacle for advancing aqueous zinc-ion batteries. In this paper, we report a synergistic interfacial engineering strategy that integrates in situ-grown zincophilic copper nanorod arrays with a self-assembled layer of 1-dodecanethiol to regulate ion flux and suppress side reactions simultaneously. The water-poor electric double-layer microenvironment derived from this dual-function "zincophilic-hydrophobic" architecture (denoted as HS-Cu@Zn) promotes uniform Zn deposition along the (100) plane, enhances desolvation kinetics (Zn
