Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion Applications of Vanadium Nitrides: Recent Developments and Future Perspectives.
Review in Small science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The growing demand for sustainable energy systems has driven advancements in materials for efficient energy storage and conversion technologies. Among emerging electrode materials, vanadium nitride (VN) has attracted attention due to its high electrical conductivity, excellent chemical stability, tunable electronic structure, and abundant electrochemically active sites, making it suitable for many device applications. Synthesis strategies, composite design, and electrolyte selection play critical roles in determining the electrochemical performance of VN-based materials. This review provides a comprehensive overview of VN, including theoretical insights, various synthesis routes, and their influence on structural and electrochemical properties. The application of VN in energy storage technologies like supercapacitors, ion-batteries, and metal-ion capacitors, is systematically discussed, highlighting its high specific capacity, excellent rate capability, and long-term cycling stability. Furthermore, VN's electrocatalytic performance for hydrogen evolution, oxygen evolution, oxygen reduction, carbon dioxide reduction, and nitrogen reduction is critically evaluated, emphasizing its low overpotentials, enhanced catalytic activity, and favorable reaction kinetics. Despite these advantages, challenges like surface oxidation, structural degradation, and limitations in large-scale synthesis remain. Future perspectives on nanostructure engineering, heterostructure integration, and advanced electrolyte optimization are also extensively discussed. These characteristics position VN as a significant contender for next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies.
