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

Lithium metal is regarded as the ideal anode material for rechargeable batteries due to its exceptionally high theoretical capacity and low redox potential. Electrolytes combining imide salts and ethers have been extensively studied for their high reduction stability and ability to form robust protective films on Li-metal surfaces. Despite these advantages, concerns over safety and possible corrosion of battery components may severely limit industrial adoption. A major breakthrough would be the utilization of the well-established LiPF6 salt; however, its chemical instability and tendency to polymerize ether solvents present challenges. Herein, we report LiPF6/ether-based electrolytes that effectively suppress ether polymerization and form highly functional inorganic-organic bilayer films on Li. Consequently, a Coulombic efficiency of 99.5%, which is comparable to those of state-of-the-art imide-based systems, was achieved without using fluorinated solvents or additives. This marks a step forward in advancing LiPF6-based electrolytes for future rechargeable batteries.
