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

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) paired with abundant sodium (Na) and high-voltage polyanionic cathode, offer improved energy density and superior safety, positioning them as scalable alternatives for resource-limited lithium batteries. However, such technologies are plagued by critical interfacial engineering challenges: existing GPEs fail to sustain (electro)-chemical stability and mechanical close contact at high-loading cathodes and highly reactive anodes. Here, we report a rationally engineered GPE featuring biphasic polymer, creating step channels and polymer-solvent dipole adsorption to address the key issues. It enables volume-constrained bidirectional transport of infilling linear ether and cyclic carbonate solvents and endows the polymer with differential mechanical viscoelasticity for high-loading cathodes and ductile Na anodes. Therefore, a high-energy-density full cell of Na||Na
