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 electrodeposition of rare earth metal alloys has attracted considerable interest, not only due to the challenges associated with the reduction in metal ions, but also because of their unique material properties and promising technological applications. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of the state-of-the-art in the electrochemical deposition of these alloys, focusing on various electrolytic systems, including aqueous solutions, organic molecular solvents, ionic liquids, and deep eutectic solvents. Despite inherent problematic factors such as low reduction potentials, competing hydrogen evolution reactions, and difficulties in controlling metal formation, recent advancements have enabled improved control over film formation, typically through the induced codeposition of lanthanides with iron-group metals. The influence of key factors, such as electrolyte composition and current/potential modes, on alloy codeposition, elemental and phase composition, structure, and deposition efficiency is discussed. The magnetic properties, electrocatalytic behavior, and corrosion resistance of the deposited films are also shown, highlighting their relevance for high-performance applications.
