Exploring micellar behavior of surfactants-assisted electrospinning of polyacrylonitrile nanofibers.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Current work investigates new and easy method for doping PAN nanofibers with four types of colloidal surfactants to improve their electrical and structural characteristics. Solution conductivity measurements were used to establish each surfactant’s critical micelle concentration to optimally electrospun them into nanofibers. Surfactant addition significantly decreased fiber diameter and enhanced surface homogeneity producing thin fibers (~ 180 nm). When comparing surfactant-modified fibers to pure PAN, impedance spectroscopy showed notable improvement in dielectric relaxation and charge transport behavior. This work is interesting because it establishes previously unreported direct association between electrical impedance response of electrospun PAN nanofibers, micellar behavior and surfactant type. The type of surfactant and its micellar properties have a significant impact on the electrospinning behavior of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers. This work opens door for enhanced performance of PAN nanofibers in flexible electronics, energy devices and filtration systems by proving that surfactant-assisted electrospinning is practical, affordable and adjustable method of controlling electrical and morphological characteristics of PAN nanofibers.
