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

Biomolecular self-assembly presents a convenient and promising approach for fabricating functional nanomaterials. The inherent structural and functional diversity of biomolecules facilitates the creation of a wide spectrum of biological nanomaterials through this intricate process. These versatile materials have demonstrated extensive utility in multidisciplinary domains, encompassing materials science, biomedical engineering, tissue engineering, nanotechnology, and analytical science. This review focuses on self-assembled biomolecular materials for energy harvesting applications, organized into 4 main aspects. Firstly, we introduce the self-assembly methods and key factors involved in biomolecular self-assembly mechanism, including hydrogen bonding, covalent bonds, π-π interactions, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions. Secondly, we discussed the structural characteristics of different types of self-assembled biomolecular materials and introduced their mechanical, piezoelectric, ferroelectric, semiconductor, and biocompatibility properties. Next, the application of self-assembled biomolecular materials in energy harvesting was studied, mainly focusing on piezoelectric nanogenerators, triboelectric nanogenerators, water-enabled electricity generation, and other types of energy harvesting devices. Finally, we emphasized challenges in the area encompassing not only the design of the materials and assembly regulation but also probable efforts in improving performance and application fields. We believe that this review will elucidate diverse functions of self-assembled biomaterials, paving the way for the innovative design of biomaterials not only for energy harvesting systems but also for biomaterial-based microelectronic devices.
