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

Wireless energy harvesting represents an emerging technology that can be integrated into a variety of systems for biomedical, physical, and chemical functions. The miniaturization and ease of implementation are the main challenges for the development of wireless energy harvesting systems. Unlike most reported wireless energy harvesting technologies represented by electromagnetic coupling, the new generation of ultrasound-induced wireless energy harvesting (UWEH) that use propagating ultrasound waves to carry the available energy provides a strategy with higher resolution, deeper penetration, and more security, especially in nanodevices and implantable medical systems where a long-term stable power is required. Recently, advances in nanotechnologies, microelectronics, and biomedical systems are revolutionizing UWEH. In this article, an overview of recent developments in UWEH technologies that use a variety of material strategies and system designs based on the piezoelectric and capacitive energy harvesting mechanisms is provided. Practical applications are also presented, including wireless power for bio-implantable devices, direct cell/tissue electrical stimulations, wireless recording and communication in nervous systems, ultrasonic modulated drug delivery, self-powered acoustic sensors, and ultrasound-induced piezoelectric catalysis. Finally, perspectives and opportunities are also highlighted.
