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

Thermoelectric (TE) energy conversion, which directly transforms waste heat into usable electricity, presents a crucial technology for sustainable power generation and energy efficiency enhancement. The emergence of two-dimensional (2D) materials has profoundly impacted this field by providing an atomically thin platform for unprecedented control over electronic and thermal transport properties. This comprehensive review critically analyzes the latest progress, persistent challenges, and future opportunities of 2D materials for advanced TE applications. We begin by systematically evaluating the synthesis and processing toolkit, correlating techniques from top-down exfoliation to bottom-up chemical vapor deposition with their specific impacts on microstructure and final device performance. Subsequently, we provide a critical assessment of the fundamental TE performance of key 2D families, including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), MXenes, black phosphorus (BP), and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). The discussion details how advanced engineering strategies, such as strain modulation, layer number control, chemical doping, and heterostructure (HS) design, can dramatically enhance the power factor (PF) while simultaneously suppressing lattice thermal conductivity (κ
