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

Supramolecular oleogel lubricants construct a three-dimensional network structure within base oils through gelator-mediated non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, and π-π stacking. These materials demonstrate unique advantages in mitigating issues inherent to traditional lubricants, including leakage, volatility, creep, and poor heat dissipation. Focusing on structural design and performance regulation, this review systematically summarizes the current development of supramolecular oleogel lubricants in the fields of green lubrication, extreme operating conditions, and nanocomposite lubrication. Specifically, it outlines the structure-property relationships between gelators and base oils in green lubrication systems, and elucidates the applications in radiation-resistant, high-load-bearing, and intelligently responsive lubrication. Strategies for utilizing nanocomposite supramolecular oleogels to resolve nanomaterial dispersion challenges are discussed, and the latest advancements in engineering applications are illustrated. By summarizing the development of supramolecular oleogel materials, this work can provide theoretical references for the future design and preparation of these lubricants.
