Interface-Encoded Dynamic Covalent Crosslinking Enables Ultra-Stretchable, Signal-Stable Conductive Elastomers.
Article in Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany), 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
Conductive composite elastomers for soft electronics are often constrained by a fundamental trade-off: weak filler-matrix adhesion leads to interfacial defects, stress concentration, and signal instability under dynamic strain, whereas conventional covalent "locking" improves adhesion at the cost of elasticity and stretchability. Here, we report a dynamic covalent interface engineering strategy that resolves this conflict by converting the filler-matrix boundary into a reconfigurable, stress-dissipative covalent junction. Lipoic-acid-functionalized carbon nanofibers (CNFs) serve as nanoscale multi-point crosslinkers within a polylipoic-acid-based elastomer, where surface-grafted 1,2-dithiolane rings undergo reversible disulfide exchange with the matrix to strengthen stress transfer while preserving network mobility. The resulting bio-based conductive elastomers exhibit ultra-stretchability (∼4200%) with markedly enhanced toughness and up to three- to fivefold higher conductivity compared with unmodified-CNF controls. They operate over an exceptionally wide sensing range (0%-3000% strain), delivering gauge factors up to 8.13 and ∼2× higher ΔR/R
