Geometry-Regulated Electrode-Wide Nucleation Patterns in Aqueous Zinc Anodes.

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
Zinc metal is a promising anode for aqueous zinc batteries due to its high theoretical capacity and low cost. However, its practical implementation remains limited by dendrite formation and interfacial instability. Herein, we present a geometry-driven strategy that regulates Zn deposition through control of the hole opening ratio (HOR) in laser-ablated three-dimensional hole-patterned Zn foil. Based on preferential Zn deposition at periodically arranged hole edges, HOR was introduced as a geometric parameter that dictates the spatial density of nucleation sites. Systematic variation of the HOR reveals that it governs the dispersion and size of early-stage Zn deposits, defining the electrode-wide nucleation pattern and subsequent growth behavior. The optimized HOR balances sparse nucleation with localized growth and dense nucleation with coalescence-driven aggregation, enabling spatially uniform Zn deposition. As a result, the HOR-tailored electrode achieves dendrite-free deposition with long-term stability in symmetric cells (3400 h at 0.5 mA cm
