Magnetically driven triboelectric nanogenerator for a wireless, versatile energy transfer system.
Article in Science advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The development of stable and multifunctional monitoring or actuating systems for implantable biomedical devices necessitates a high-capacity power supply. By using the oscillation of a magnetic field, energy can be transmitted through various media such as skin, fat, liquids, metals, and fabrics. We demonstrate a magnetically actuated implantable triboelectric generator that can effectively transfer energy independently of the surrounding media. The oscillation of the magnetic field enables contact of elastomeric magnets with the top and bottom electrodes of the generator, generating a path for electrical energy through contact electrification. The performance of the magnetically actuated triboelectric generator exhibits high tolerability for lateral and angular misalignment, transferring energy through different media including tissue, liquid, air, wood, metal, and fabrics. This addresses a critical issue present in ultrasound approaches. These findings suggest that a magnetically actuated triboelectric generator can be an alternative technology capable of overcoming the medium-related challenges of ultrasound, providing power to medical implants.
