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

Ionogels have emerged as promising candidates for low-grade thermal energy harvesting due to their leak-free electrolytes, exceptional flexibility, thermal stability, and high thermopower. While substantial progress in the thermoelectric performance of p-type ionogels, research on n-type ionic materials lags behind. Striking a harmonious balance between high mechanical performance and thermoelectric properties remains a formidable challenge. This work presents an advanced n-type ionogel system integrating polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([AMIM]Cl), and bacterial cellulose (BC) through a rational design strategy. The synergistic combination of photo-polymerization and hydrogen-bonding networks effectively immobilizes imidazolium cations while enabling rapid chloride ion transport, creating a pronounced cation-anion mobility disparity that yields a substantial negative ionic Seebeck coefficient of -7.16 mV K⁻¹. Furthermore, BC's abundant hydroxyl groups establish multivalent hydrogen bonds within the ternary polymer matrix, endowing the composite with exceptional mechanical properties-notably a tensile strength of 3.2 MPa and toughness of 4.1 MJ m⁻
