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

Passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) is a promising thermal management technology, yet its widespread application is hindered by the high production costs and poor durability of traditional organic-based materials. Here, we presented a hierarchically porous, all-inorganic PDRC coating synthesized from industrial waste glass and alumina microparticles via low-temperature (600 °C) processing. Rather than serving merely as a cheap substitute, the alkali oxides inherent in waste glass act as natural fluxes, enabling partial melting. Concurrently, the steric hindrance of alumina restricts full densification, spontaneously constructing a highly scattering random photonic network. The optimized composite (50 wt.% waste glass/50 wt.% alumina) achieves 96% solar reflectance and 95% atmospheric window emittance. Field tests confirmed sub-ambient cooling of ~4.0 °C (day) and ~4.5 °C (night), yielding a peak net cooling power of 108.1 W/m
