Power Generation by a Double-Sided Tape.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A novel contact-separation triboelectric generator concept is proposed in this study, which is composed of a double-sided tape with acrylic adhesive material and a metalized polyester (PET/Al) film (an aluminum layer coating on one side). The proposed concept is very cost-effective and easy to fabricate compared to existing triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), which require special equipment and sophisticated procedure to build. The strong bonding nature of acrylic adhesive on the tape induces a significant charge when contacting. The peak power generation depends on the induced pressure at the impact. During the separation phase, the air breakdown between triboelectric layers allows most existing electrons to flow back from the ground due to rapid charge removal at the interface. A higher voltage can be generated when the PET is interfaced with the double-sided tape compared to the Al-acrylic configuration because of the effect of triboelectric series and a Schottky barrier formation for electrons at the tape-Al interface during contact. A double-electrode configuration with an assembly of Al/PET-tape-PET/Al significantly improved the performance, in which a 21.2 mW peak power is achieved compared to 7.6 mW in the single-electrode design with tape-PET/Al assembly when excited at 20 Hz in a shaker test. This double-electrode triboelectric generator can power 476 LEDs with an active area of 38 mm × 25 mm. Moreover, a direct power of a 650 nm laser diode was demonstrated. In summary, the proposed triboelectric generator concept using tacky materials shows the potential for higher-energy harvesting via triboelectrification and advances the state of the art by offering low cost and easy fabrication options. It is expected that such newly proposed triboelectric generators are able to meet power requirements in many engineering applications.
