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

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have attracted increasing attention in wearable thermoelectric devices due to their extremely high strength and toughness. Here we introduce a flexible thermoelectric wearable wristband based on SWCNTs. High-performance SWCNTs films were successfully fabricated through ultrasonic dispersion and heat-pressing processes, exhibiting a Seebeck coefficient of 42.5 µV/K and a maximum electrical conductivity of 3503 S/cm. The flexible films exhibited excellent bending durability, ‌with‌ an impedance increase of no more than 7.6% after 400 bending cycles.The width and length of the thermoelectric legs were optimized, and a wearable thermoelectric wristband was simulated by connecting the legs in series, thereby analyzing its total output power. Furthermore, a thermoelectric wristband was fabricated by spin-coating onto a flexible printed circuit (FPC) substrate, and it achieved a maximum output power of 10.7 µW under a temperature difference of 36.5 K. This research provides an efficient and feasible energy harvesting pathway for utilizing carbon-based materials as thermoelectric materials.
