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

While highly concentrated salts and organic components enhance the subzero performance of zinc batteries by improving electrolyte fluidity and conductivity, their high cost and environmental pollution negate the inherent sustainability and economy of aqueous electrolytes. Herein, inspired by the ice-inhibition mechanism of natural antifreeze glycoproteins, we designed oligomeric cellulose with an average degree of polymerization of 8 (OC-8). At trace concentration, OC-8 effectively suppresses ice recrystallization and induces a fourfold increase in inter-ice water channels. In situ confocal fluorescence microscopy confirms that this interconnected network boosts ion transport by nearly an order of magnitude in cryogenic electrolytes. Complementary molecular dynamics simulations coupled with CHILL
