Bioprinting for the Biologist.
Review in Cell, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 147 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
Building tissues from scratch to explore entirely new cell configurations could revolutionize fundamental understanding in biology. Bioprinting is an emerging technology to do this. Although typically applied to engineer tissues for therapeutic tissue repair or drug screening, there are many opportunities for bioprinting within biology, such as for exploring cellular crosstalk or cellular morphogenesis. The overall goals of this Primer are to provide an overview of bioprinting with the biologist in mind, outline the steps in extrusion bioprinting (the most widely used and accessible technology), and discuss alternative bioprinting technologies and future opportunities for bioprinting in biology.
