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

Flexible photothermal materials have attracted considerable attention for applications in biomedicine, energy conversion, and smart devices. While state-of-the-art inorganic nanomaterials and conductive polymers exhibit excellent photothermal properties, simultaneously achieving efficient photothermal performance, environmental stability, and mechanical flexibility remains challenging. Naphthalene diimide (NDI)-based materials are well-known for their strong photothermal response resulting from the formation of radical anions. In this work, we employ glycerol as a plasticizer and humectant to improve film uniformity in NDI-based films, while the incorporation of PVA enhances long-term stability by slowing NDI oxidation and enabling mechanical tunability. Photothermal performance was evaluated using direct thermal imaging and Peltier voltage measurements. Under 617 nm irradiation at 16 mW cm
