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 (TENGs) convert mechanical energy through contact electrification and electrostatic induction, with performance strongly affected by interfacial topography. Here, we report an interlocking micro/nanostructure-enhanced TENG (ILMS-TENG) fabricated by femtosecond-laser ablation of aluminum and nanoimprinting of complementary PDMS features. The size-matched interlocking interface increases the real contact area and improves charge separation. Among pyramidal, truncated-pyramidal, and square-prismatic designs, the square-prismatic ILMS-TENG achieved the best performance, delivering 37.9 V, 3.40 μA, and 23.9 μW from a 1 cm
