Achieving High Energy Efficiency: Recent Advances in Zn-Air-Based Hybrid Battery Systems.
Article in Small science, 2024. 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
Rechargeable Zn-air batteries (ZABs) are regarded as an attractive green energy storage technology, featured with large theoretical energy densities and intrinsic high safety factors. However, hindered by the sluggish kinetics of both oxygen reduction reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, rechargeable ZABs are confronted with some critical challenges such as low operating voltage, poor energy efficiency, and limited cycle life. Zn-air-based hybrid batteries (ZAHBs), integrating the advantages of a conventional ZAB with supplementary redox reactions, have emerged as a promising solution to address those challenges. Based on working principles, the hybrid batteries can be categorized into two groups: Zn-M/air hybrid batteries (M = Ni, Co, Ag, Cu, and Mn) and Zn-X/air hybrid batteries (X = KI, ethanol, and urea), which can achieve improved energy efficiency and density by optimizing charge-discharge voltage. Herein, a comprehensive overview of ZAHBs is provided, including the classification, latest progress, and electrochemical properties, as well as detailed discussion of relevant mechanisms. Moreover, the perspectives and opportunities for future research in the field of hybrid battery systems are also outlined. This review shall give helpful guidance on the design and application of ZAHBs, and provide important insights into the development of new electrochemical energy storage systems.
