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

Cationic poly(ionic liquids) (polyILs) are promising solid polymer electrolytes, yet the role of cationic charge-centre chemistry in regulating alkali-metal transport and interfacial behaviour remains poorly understood. Here, we computationally investigated a phosphonium-based polyIL at high lithium or sodium concentrations and compared these systems with previously reported ammonium-based analogues. The phosphonium systems demonstrated superior alkali-metal ion diffusion, which was consistent with their high ionic conductivities. Molecular-level analyses show that phosphonium cation chemistry does not necessarily lead to weaker isolated interactions with the anion, as demonstrated here. Rather, it is associated with weaker collective ionic interactions in the condensed phase, contributing to lower
