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

Ionic thermoelectrics (i-TEs) demonstrate immense application potential in such fields as wearables and low-grade energy harvesting. Though adequate moisture absorption is required to facilitate ion dissociation in i-TEs, the impact of moisture gradient has been overlooked. Herein, we demonstrate a moisture-gradient-enhanced ionic thermoelectric generator (MGITG) driven by both moisture and temperature gradients. The MGITG exhibits an ionic thermopower of 34.02 mV K
