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

Harsh-environment requirements of electrical and electronic systems demand advanced dielectrics with high energy storage density at elevated temperatures. Heat-resistant polymers are usually designed with densely packed molecular chains to maintain structural integrity. Unfortunately, the narrowed inter-chain spacing causes severe charge transfer under high electro-thermal fields, prohibiting capacitive energy storage beyond 200 °C. Here we report hyperbranched dielectric polymer networks as a solution to the persistent challenge. The hyperbranched topological junctions not only transform the linear polymer chains into a robust network to tolerate thermal stress, but also expand the inter-chain spacing to inhibit charge transfer. Results suggest that the hyperbranched networks exhibit suppressed secondary chain relaxation alongside expanded free volume. Moreover, the customizable chemical structure of hyperbranched centers renders this method general to capacitive polymer design. The hyperbranched polymer networks exhibit an exceptionally high discharged energy density of 4.9 J/cm
