Triboelectric Nanogenerators Promote Self-Powered Sensing and Intelligent Monitoring.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Against the backdrop of global energy structure decarbonization, distributed transformation, and the rapid development of low-power electronic devices and sensor networks, micro-energy supply and intelligent sensing have emerged as critical bottlenecks limiting their large-scale application. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), leveraging advantages such as compatibility with diverse materials and adaptability to flexible and miniaturized fabrication, can efficiently harvest widely available low-frequency, low-amplitude distributed mechanical energy in the environment. Additionally, they exhibit self-powered sensing characteristics, where output signals are directly correlated with external physical quantities, demonstrating unique strengths in the fields of micro-/nano-energy and intelligent monitoring. This article systematically reviews the research progress in TENGs; elucidates their working modes and power generation principles; summarizes material design, structural optimization, and performance enhancement strategies for efficient energy harvesting; and outlines the current state of self-powered sensing technologies. It highlights their engineering applications in intelligent monitoring scenarios such as drones, marine environments, infrastructure, and wearable devices. Addressing the existing technical bottlenecks and theoretical challenges in integrated energy harvesting-sensing-monitoring systems, the paper envisions future trends toward high performance, integration, and intelligence, providing valuable insights for fundamental research on and engineering applications of TENGs in micro-energy supply and intelligent monitoring.
