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 discovery of MXenes has led to the emergence of a versatile group of 2D materials with outstanding characteristics. Nonetheless, their traditional production, which relies on toxic hydrofluoric acid (HF), faces dire environmental, safety, and material performance issues, limiting scalability and sustainability. The article presents a critical review of the paradigm shift in green synthesis methodologies, including electrochemical etching, molten salt synthesis, and deep eutectic solvents (DESs). These fluoride-free pathways not only reduce the risk of hazardous waste and harm to human health but also produce MXenes with enhanced structural integrity, customized surface chemistry (e.g., Cl, O, OH), and improved electrochemical activity. The products obtained exhibit breakthrough performance in energy storage (e.g., supercapacitors, Li-ion, and post-Li batteries), electrocatalysis (hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution reactions), environmental remediation (photocatalysis, sensing), and biocompatible devices, as well as making green-synthesized MXenes a key material in the next generation of sustainable technology.
