Dried Spot Paradigm: Problems and Prospects in Proteomics.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 analysis of biological fluids plays a crucial role in biomarker discovery, disease diagnostics, and precision medicine. Dried sample carriers-such as dried blood spots, dried plasma, serum, saliva, tears, and urine-have emerged as powerful tools, offering advantages in sample collection, storage, and transport, particularly in remote and resource-limited settings. Recent advances in proteomic methodologies have expanded the potential of these dried matrices, yet challenges related to protein stability, sensitivity, and standardization persist. This review critically examines the current state of proteomic investigations using dried biological fluids. Furthermore, we compare proteomics' progress in this field with other omics approaches, such as metabolomics, to contextualize its development and integration potential. While dried fluid proteomics is promising for non-invasive diagnostics and large-scale epidemiological studies, addressing technical limitations will be essential for its broader adoption in clinical and translational research.
