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

Li-rich cation-disordered rocksalts (DRXs) are promising active materials for designing high-capacity positive electrodes for non-aqueous lithium-based batteries. However, the use of DRX-based positive electrodes results in pronounced cell potential hysteresis and low energy efficiency. The reasons for these detrimental behaviours remain unclear owing to the complex structural evolution of DRXs during battery operation. Here, via extensive physicochemical and electrochemical characterizations, we show that multiscale stereochemistry, particularly structure distortion at the atomic scale and short-range ordering in nanoscale domains, can thermodynamically and kinetically affect the potential hysteresis of Li||DRX cells. By using DRX models, we show that redox-inactive d
