Minimizing galvanic corrosion for durable anode-less aqueous zinc batteries.
Article in Nature communications, 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
Anode-less aqueous zinc batteries offer a promising route to energy-dense and intrinsically safe energy storage, yet their practical deployment is hindered by poor reversibility under constrained zinc inventory. Here, we identify galvanic corrosion between deposited zinc and current collectors as a critical but previously underappreciated degradation pathway in anode-less aqueous zinc batteries. A hybrid passivation layer, comprising an electrically insulating polymer matrix embedded with high-permittivity metal fluorides, is designed to mitigate parasitic electron transfer and limit current collector exposure. The resulting dielectric polarization homogenizes the interfacial electric field, promoting planar and dense zinc deposition that isolates the current collector and suppresses corrosion. Consequently, irreversible zinc loss during both cycling and calendar ageing is reduced, enabling stable zinc plating/stripping for over 900 h at 5 mA cm
