Wearable bioelectronics enabled by conductive hydrogels: From materials innovation to clinical translation.
Review in Materials today. Bio, 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 rapid evolution of wearable bioelectronics is transforming healthcare toward continuous, non-invasive monitoring and personalized intervention. Central to this progress is the development of materials that integrate mechanical compliance, reliable signal transduction, and long-term biocompatibility. Conductive hydrogels have emerged as a promising platform, combining tissue-like mechanics with tunable ionic/electronic conductivity to enable stable and conformal biointerfaces. This Review examines how materials design and nanocomposite engineering govern charge transport, mechanical robustness, and dynamic responsiveness, and how these structure-property relationships translate into device performance. Representative applications span metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological monitoring, as well as wound care, sleep analysis, and biomarker detection. We further identify key challenges for clinical translation, including long-term stability, multimodal integration, and data reliability, and outline future directions toward integrated, intelligent, and closed-loop bioelectronic systems.
