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

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool limited by low sensitivity due to low nuclear spin polarization. Hyperpolarization techniques, such as dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization, significantly enhance sensitivity, enabling real-time tracking of cellular metabolism. However, traditional high-field NMR systems and bioreactor platforms pose challenges, including the need for specialized equipment and fixed sample volumes. This study introduces a scalable, 3D-printed bioreactor platform compatible with low-field NMR spectrometers, designed to accommodate bioengineered 3D cell models. The bioreactor is fabricated using biocompatible materials and features a microfluidic system for media recirculation, ensuring optimal culture conditions during NMR acquisition and cell maintenance. We characterized the NMR compatibility of the bioreactor components and confirmed minimal signal distortion. The bioreactor's efficacy was validated using HeLa and HepG2 cells, demonstrating prolonged cell viability and enhanced metabolic activity in 3D cultures compared to 2D cultures. Hyperpolarized [1-
