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

Energy-related protein optoelectronics is an emerging field with interesting examples in photon manipulation in lighting devices, photon-induced electron transfer in photovoltaics, and H-transfer in moisture electrical generators. Here, this field is extended with the concept of photon-to-heat energy harvesting fluorescent protein (FP) coatings applied to thermoelectric generators (TEG). This device consists of a commercial TEG coated with a FP-polymer coating optimized in terms of i) the amount of a high-absorbing and low-emissive FP named E2-Crimson and ii) the thermal features of a mixture of the branched/linear polyethylene oxide matrix. With photothermal efficiencies of 48% the FP-coatings can reach temperatures between 40-60 °C under monochromatic (590 nm) and the white LED illumination sources. This results in a total power gain of up to 232 µW cm
