Investigating the Potential of Marine Animal Bioelectricity as a Basis for Renewable Energy Development.
Review in Bioelectricity, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 electrical and magnetic sensory systems of marine animals provide remarkable insights into evolutionary adaptation and their technological potential. This study explores the bioelectric abilities of marine species such as stingrays, electric eels, dolphins, and hammerhead sharks, which utilize specialized organs for hunting, navigation, and self-defense. These adaptations have inspired biomimetic innovations, including underwater navigation devices, bioelectric sensors, and medical diagnostic tools. This study uses a descriptive and qualitative method to show how electroreceptors like the ampullae of Lorenzini help the body pick up on small electric and magnetic fields. These capabilities have significant implications for the development of efficient energy systems, advanced navigation tools, and sensitive medical technologies. However, ethical and ecological challenges arise, especially concerning the conservation of marine species and their habitats. This study highlights the necessity of sustainably integrating biomimetic technologies and promoting further interdisciplinary research to enhance applications while safeguarding marine ecosystems.
