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

Al-based batteries have been particularly attractive for integration with bioelectrolytes such as sweat and tears, enabling portable and biocompatible power sources. However, their practical applications are severely constrained by sluggish mass transfer and reaction kinetics at the catalytic electrode interface. In this study, we present a compact ultrasound-catalyzed Al-based bioelectrolyte battery (ABBB) to overcome this limitation, for which the catalysis mechanisms arise from the synergistic effects of acoustic pressure, acoustic streaming, and ultrasonic stirring for jointly accelerating interfacial mass transport and electrode reaction kinetics. Experimental results show that the ultrasonic liquid-phase catalysis can dramatically improve battery discharge performance, with peak power enhanced by higher than one order of amplitude (10-fold). Notably, when the artificial sweat mimicking human sweat composition is employed as the electrolyte, the peak power can be enhanced by approximately 5-fold under the ultrasonic excitation, highlighting its feasibility for practical biofluid-powered systems. This work establishes a novel physical-field catalytic strategy for boosting ABBB performance and provides a solid foundation for their applications in self-powered biosensors, wearable medical devices, and green electronic technologies.
