Metal-displacement-derived silver nanoparticles for visible-light catalysis and TENG-enabled circuit integration.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
One of the main challenges in silver nanoparticle research is developing a quick, scalable, and environmentally friendly synthesis method that also produces stable particles suitable for various applications. To address this challenge, we propose an eco-friendly, simple and efficient approach using the metal-displacement process that enables room-temperature formation of uniformly dispersed and oxidation-resistant Ag NPs (25–50 nm). In this method, magnesium (Mg) acts as a sacrificial reductant, while tartaric acid serves as both a reducing agent and a capping agent. This novel magnesium-tartrate dual agent enables quick nucleation growth at room temperature, avoiding harsh chemicals, and yields uniformly dispersed Ag NPs with strong oxidation resistance. The synthesised Ag NPs were characterised for structural, optical, and surface analyses, confirming the formation of pure metallic Ag0 NPs with high stability due to tartarate chelation. These Ag NPs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity, degrading 91.6% of Acid Yellow and 89.4% of Rose Bengal within 180 min under visible light, following first-order kinetics. Furthermore, the Ag NPs were formulated into a conductive ink capable of producing low-resistance printed tracks. The output of a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) was directly delivered to LEDs via these Ag-ink-printed pathways, enabling self-powered illumination of 240 LEDs. Overall, the present work provides a robust, scalable solution for multifunctional Ag NPs suitable for environmental remediation and next-generation printed electronics.
