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

Integrated photo-rechargeable batteries (IPRBs) represent an emerging device class that enables simultaneous energy conversion and storage, opening new possibilities for sustainable self-powered energy solutions. The rapid advancements in this ascendant field have led to multitudinous constructions and designs, each differing in charge storage mechanisms and carrier dynamics. In this review, these works are revisited and classified into three main types: the photoelectrochemical batteries, the all-in-one monolithic IPRBs, and the photovoltaic-battery integration, which can be further categorized by their electrochemical configurations and working principles into two-terminal, three-terminal, and four-terminal architectures. This study delves into the common issue of IPRBs, namely their energy loss mechanisms, offering a comprehensive overview of current research progress, challenges, and future research directions. This review aims to provide insights and rational guidelines for designing the next-generation high-performance IPRBs.
