Cahn-Hilliard dynamical models for condensed biomolecular systems.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Biomolecular condensates create dynamic subcellular compartments that alter systems-level properties of the networks surrounding them. One model combining soluble and condensed states is the Cahn-Hilliard equation, which specifies a diffuse interface between the two phases. Customized approaches required to solve this equation are largely inaccessible. Using two complementary numerical strategies, we built stable, self-consistent Cahn-Hilliard solvers in Python, MATLAB, and Julia. The algorithms simulated the complete time evolution of condensed droplets as they dissolved or persisted, relating critical droplet size to a coefficient for the diffuse interface in the Cahn-Hilliard equation. We applied this universal relationship to the chromosomal passenger complex, a multi-protein assembly that reportedly condenses on mitotic chromosomes. The fully constrained Cahn-Hilliard simulations yielded dewetting and coarsening behaviors that closely mirrored experiments in different cell types. The Cahn-Hilliard equation tests whether condensate dynamics behave as a phase-separated liquid, and its numerical solutions advance generalized modeling of biomolecular systems.
