Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
A superhydrophobic coating synthesized from Cobalt-based Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF-67), Activated Carbon (AC), and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was successfully fabricated on a steel substrate. This coating was synthesized with concentration ratios S2 (1 wt% ZIF-67), S3 (3 wt% ZIF-67), S4 (5 wt% ZIF-67) and S5 (7 wt% ZIF-67), respectively. XRD and HR-TEM were applied to examine the crystalline structure and morphology of the synthesized nanocomposite. The results revealed S4 (5 wt% ZIF-67) composite as an optimized coating as it performed an exceptional surface wettability with a water contact angle (WCA) of 170° and superior chemical stability. Long-time laps of immersion tests in different pH range (3-11) nominated the S4 coating for retaining superhydrophobic integrity over 48 h, even placed in aggressive acidic or alkaline media. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) confirmed a robust corrosion protection performance of the S4 coating, as it recorded a high charge transfer resistance (R
