Spiking Neurons Derived from Proteinoid and Bacteriorhodopsin.
Article in ACS applied bio materials, 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
We investigate proteinoid-bacteriorhodopsin complexes as biomolecular spiking neurons for neuromorphic computing applications. Our system shows strong photoresponsive behavior through the integration of bacteriorhodopsin with self-assembled proteinoid structures. Measurements show that proteinoid-bacteriorhodopsin complexes have greater electrical activity (10.77 ± 2.21 mV) than proteinoids alone (4.34 ± 4.47 mV). The complexes have wavelength-dependent responses to 5 Hz optical stimulation. Green light (λ ≈ 520 nm) produced the strongest amplitude (7.31 ± 1.49 mV). Temporal analysis shows a consistent periodicity (τ ≈ 645 s) across wavelengths. This indicates stable oscillatory mechanisms. Random walk computations show distinct spatiotemporal patterns, suggesting potential applications in light-controlled molecular computing. These findings demonstrate that proteinoid-bacteriorhodopsin complexes are promising candidates for bioinspired computing and offer possibilities for developing biomolecular information systems.
