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

Theory-guided design of hard carbon anode from graphitization-prone precursors remains challenging because oxidation and carbonization routes lack mechanisms to selectively disrupt ordered π-π stacking while preserving structural integrity during carbonation for performance. We propose an intrinsic heteroatom-assisted site-preferential oxidation mechanism that enables framework disruption and kinetically inhibits restacking during carbonization of petroleum asphaltenes rich in heteroatoms. Electronic inhomogeneity of nitric acid makes its acid-derived radicals preferentially anchor on heteroatom-modified sites, inducing steric hindrance and oxidation-guided pore evolution that yields turbostratic hard carbon with expanded interlayer spacing and closed pores. Operando characterization and density functional theory (DFT) calculations identified this heteroatom-mediated localized reactivity as the origin of suppressed graphitization and enhanced sodium-storage kinetics. The resulting material delivers a high initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of 89.7% and a reversible capacity of 404.1 mAh g
