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

Sorption-based atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) is a promising approach to relieve water scarcity in off-grid arid regions. Practical deployment remains limited by slow sorption kinetics caused by diffusion resistance and by intermittent desorption under diurnal and weather-dependent solar input. Here we report a hybrid solar and phase-change-material (PCM) hygroscopic wood composite (PHW) that integrates a water-sorption zone and an energy-management zone. The sorption zone uses a LiCl-embedded wood sponge with vertically aligned, multilayer channels to accelerate mass transport and shorten the time to equilibrium. The energy-management zone employs a PCM-based photothermal hydrogel to enhance solar-to-thermal conversion and store heat for sustained desorption. The PHW achieves a water uptake capacity of 0.59-3.03 g g
