Advancements in Ambient Ionisation Mass Spectrometry in 2024: An Annual Review.
Review in Analytical science advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The introduction of ambient ionisation mass spectrometry (AIMS) is among the most important developments in analytical chemistry in recent years. Enabling the direct analysis of samples in their native state with neither sample preparation nor chromatographic separation provides chemical characterisation in a matter of seconds. Since its inception in the early 2000s, the field of ambient ionisation has continued to expand and develop, pushing the boundaries of analytical chemistry and finding utility across broad areas of scientific research. This annual review provides an overview of key developments and applications of AIMS throughout 2024. The introduction of novel ion sources, development of existing techniques for enhanced performance, and diverse applications across forensic science, food chemistry, disease detection and more highlight the expanding versatility and widespread adoption of ambient ionisation across the globe.
