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

Polymer semiconductors enable the development of stretchable devices in skin-like wearable electronics. However, a formidable challenge stem from breaking the trade-off between stretchability and charge carrier mobility for these semiconductor devices. Instead of introducing conjugation breakers or flexible blocks, we strategically incorporated nonplanar and rigid 5,11-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-2,8-di(thiophen-2-yl)-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole (TICZ) units into conjugated polymer backbones at varying modification ratios to deliberately induce backbone twisting. This structural distortion effectively suppresses polymer chain aggregation, reduces crystallite size and overall film crystallinity, and ultimately enhances mechanical stretchability. Meanwhile, the excellent charge transport properties were achieved because of the maintenance of conjugated polymer backbone. The designed polymer demonstrates exceptional balance of electrical and mechanical properties, maintaining charge carrier mobility (0.7 cm
