Buried Liquid Metal Interfaces: Oxides and Surface Water-Driven Hydrogen Bubbles.
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
This paper investigates the interface between liquid metal and air-impermeable substrates. Liquid metals, such as eutectic gallium indium (EGaIn), are low-viscosity liquids at room temperature that can be injected or dispensed against surfaces to form electrical or thermal contacts. While advancing EGaIn across a surface, its native oxide might roll like a "tank-tread" onto the substrate. In this case, there will be oxide between the metal and the substrate. Alternatively, the oxide might 'slip' across the substrate while EGaIn advances, resulting in an oxide-free, metallic contact to the substrate. Here, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and macroscopic fluid dynamic experiments show that the oxide exists between EGaIn and the walls of both air-impermeable Si
