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

Balancing thermal management with mechanical buffering is critical for protecting outdoor devices and expanding their application scenarios. Here we propose a nacre-mimetic strategy that synergistically improves passive cooling and impact resistance through brick-and-mortar component regulation, surpassing numerous advanced high-performance composites. Dynamic crosslinking within the composition imparts non-absorption in specific spectral bands and strain-rate-dependent impact hardening. The as-designed composite exhibits a thermal anisotropy ratio of 44.47 and remains nonflammable under an 873 K flame for 1 h, releasing low-carbon gaseous products. It achieves solar reflectance and mid-infrared emittance of 0.97 at 393 K, translating to urban cooling energy savings exceeding 40%. The composite resists projectile penetration at 50 m s
