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

In this study, a two-step electrodeposition strategy was proposed to fabricate an eco-friendly superhydrophobic polyaniline (PANI)/silane composite coating on mild steel for corrosion protection. The first step consists of creating a pure PANI adherent coating using a cyclic voltammetry technique and the second step consists of realizing superhydrophobic features using electrodeposition in mixed silane monomers at constant potential. The structure and composition characterization results revealed successful modification of the underlying pure PANI layer with superhydrophobic surface silane film. Wettability tests indicated a high contact angle of 155° and a low sliding angle of 4.2°. Electrochemical measurements revealed that the corrosion current density of PANI/silane-coated mild steel decreased by approximately three orders of magnitude compared to the uncoated sample and the corrosion protection efficiency was as high as 99.6%. Moreover, the prepared PANI/silane hybrid coating exhibited good chemical stability and strong adhesion after 10 days of corrosion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution.
