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

Triboelectric nanogenerators represent a highly promising technology for large-scale blue energy harvesting. TENGs have many advantages that make it promising for energy harvesting applications. However, the development of TENGs was hampered by structural design limitations. This work presents an oblate spheroidal triboelectric nanogenerator for all-weather blue energy harvesting. The device integrates three spring-steel-based units and employs a half-wave rectifier charge excitation circuit, where one-unit primes three main units to enhance overall output. We systematically investigate the working mechanism and output performance of the TENG at various frequencies. Moreover, the symmetrical oblate spheroidal shell structure ensures stable TENG output even under inversion conditions by leveraging its geometric stability. The high output power of this TENG configuration demonstrates significant potential for future all-weather blue energy harvesting applications.
