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

Over the past few years, the efficiency of organic solar cells (OSCs) has significantly increased from about 15% to 21%. The morphology of the photoactive layer plays a critical role in performance improvement of OSCs. Therefore, numerous methods have been developed to optimize the morphology of the photoactive layer and unlock the full potential of the devices. Among them, volatile solid and solvent additives have attracted considerable attention due to their robust enhancement of efficiency and stability, coupled with a simple operational process. Here, the classification and development history of the volatile solid and solvent additives are comprehensively summarized, and the underlying mechanisms of morphology optimization are discussed. Additionally, a summary of volatile additive-induced improvements in interfacial layer performance is provided. Finally, the challenges and prospects for volatile additives are presented.
