Implantable Ion-Selective Organic Electrochemical Transistors Enable Continuous, Long-Term, and In Vivo Plant Monitoring.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 development of plant-specific biosensors holds the potential to uncover new insights into plant physiology and advance precision agriculture. Current sensing platforms mainly focus on broad plant phenotypes (e.g., elongation and hydration) and local environmental monitoring (e.g., temperature and moisture). Here, an ion-selective organic electrochemical transistor (IS-OECT) is introduced that enables real-time monitoring of variations in potassium ion concentration within the xylem of pine trees. This work demonstrates that the high sensitivity of the IS-OECT enables the detection of subtle variations in potassium ion concentrations in the xylem sap of living trees, and the high stability of the sensor allows for in vivo measurements over five weeks. Furthermore, the implantable sensors are fabricated using processes that are compatible with low-cost manufacturing (i.e., lithography-free). This sensing technology, therefore, has great potential to be a game-changer in precision forestry and could extend to precision agriculture and horticulture practices.
