Bio-Inspired Strategy for Radiation-Based Thermal Management and Utilization.
Review in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In nature, biological species have evolved unique mechanisms and sophisticated structures for intelligent radiation-based thermal management and utilization over billions of years through natural selection. These adaptive strategies in biological species serve as a significant source of inspiration for the development of advanced thermal engineering materials and systems in modern society, driving innovation in applications such as building heating and cooling, personal thermal management, water acquisition, and next-generation infrared (IR) sensing systems. In this review, advancements in biological and bio-inspired thermal management strategies, including radiative cooling, thermal regulation, and thermal insulation, are comprehensively summarized. Additionally, recent advancements in radiation-based biological and bio-inspired thermal utilization are discussed, focusing on applications such as water harvesting, IR camouflage, and IR detection. Next, various examples of the integration of IR management strategies with electronic and energy systems are introduced, highlighting their potential to enhance efficiency and functionality in thermal management, energy efficiency, and advanced sensing applications. By leveraging these bio-inspired systems, innovative strategies have emerged, encompassing both thermal management and utilization, and enabling efficient heat regulation and energy harvesting across a wide range of technological applications. Finally, a future perspective on the development of radiation-based bio-inspired thermal management and utilization technologies is provided.
