Mechanisms of hydrogen embrittlement, mitigation strategies, and emerging materials for hydrogen energy and advanced manufacturing.
Review in Frontiers in chemistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hydrogen is considered one of the most promising energy carriers for low-carbon energy systems. However, hydrogen embrittlement (HE) poses a threat to the structural integrity and long-term reliability of metallic materials used in hydrogen production, storage, transportation, and utilization. Microstructural features such as dislocations, vacancies, grain boundaries, precipitates, and phase interfaces can act as hydrogen trapping sites. Hydrogen atoms introduced through gaseous exposure, electrochemical reactions, or corrosion processes can accumulate at these sites. Consequently, hydrogen-metal interactions can reduce ductility, accelerate crack initiation and propagation, and promote premature failure under static and cyclic loading conditions. This brief overview discusses the recent advances in hydrogen uptake, diffusion, trapping, and damage mechanisms, including hydrogen-enhanced decohesion (HEDE), hydrogen-enhanced localized plasticity (HELP), and hydrogen-enhanced strain-induced vacancy formation (HESIV). HE susceptibility is examined in relation to alloy chemistry, microstructure, environmental factors, and mechanical loading conditions. In addition, recent advances in multiscale modelling,
