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 irregular gaps between the transmit/receive (T/R) modules, heat dissipation substrates, and radomes in active phased array radars constitute primary pathways for electromagnetic energy leakage and crosstalk. However, existing wave-absorbing materials only rely on the preset shape mode, making them fail to complete conformal coverage and filling of these complex cavities. In this study, we present a shape-autonomous strategy enabled by a reversible "compress-dehydrate/rehydrate-recover" cycle, implemented through a shape-memory wave-absorbing hydrogel that incorporates elastic inorganic fibers and conductive carbon nanotubes. Our approach relies on an elastic fibrous framework coupled with a dynamic hydrogen bond "break-reform" mechanism, which effectively improves the shape recovery performance of the hydrogel. The resulting NFHsc exhibits integrated characteristics, including full recovery under 80% strain, shape-memory behavior, injectability, and effective wave absorption, achieving a minimum reflection loss (RL
