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

Heterogeneity and the absence of a tumor microenvironment (TME) in traditional patient-derived organoid (PDO) cultures limit their effectiveness for clinical use. Here, Embedded Bioprinting-enabled Arrayed PDOs (Eba-PDOs) featuring uniformly arrayed colorectal cancer (CRC) PDOs within a recreated TME is presented. This model faithfully reproduces critical TME attributes, including elevated matrix stiffness (≈7.5 kPa) and hypoxic conditions found in CRC. Transcriptomic and immunofluorescence microscopy analysis reveal that Eba-PDOs more accurately represent actual tissues compared to traditional PDOs. Furthermore, Eba-PDO effectively capture the variability of CEACAM5 expression-a critical CRC marker-across different patients, correlating with patient classification and differential responses to 5-fluorouracil treatment. This method achieves an uniform size and shape within PDOs from the same patient while preserving distinct morphological features among those from different individuals. These features of Eba-PDO enable the efficient development of a label-free, morphology-based predictive model using supervised learning, enhancing its suitability for clinical applications. Thus, this approach to PDO bioprinting is a promising tool for generating personalized tumor models and advancing precision medicine.
