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

As research on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) continues to advance, their applications are becoming increasingly diverse and sophisticated. This paper aims to provide future researchers with a concise yet comprehensive understanding of the four fundamental operational principles of TENGs, enabling them to fully appreciate the unique characteristics and application scenarios of each mode. In doing so, researchers can make informed and well-grounded choices in selecting the most suitable operational mode for exploration and innovation, tailored to their specific fields and requirements. Furthermore, this paper aligns closely with the current research frontiers and development trends of TENGs by systematically reviewing the literature and analyzing recent developments in the field from three key perspectives: the expansion of application domains, innovations in structural design, and optimizations in material properties. Through this multidimensional framework, it not only highlights the broad potential and practical prospects of TENGs but also uncovers the latest advancements and future directions in technological breakthroughs and performance enhancement.
