Optoacoustic-Guided Magnetic Microrobot Platform for Precision Drug Delivery.
Article in Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Precision drug delivery remains a significant challenge due to limitations in drug loading, targeted release, precise navigation, and real-time monitoring. Here, the study reports a magnetic microrobot platform (MMP) that integrates high-capacity drug loading, magnetically actuated collective navigation, controlled drug release, and real-time 3D optoacoustic imaging in a single system. The MMP exploits synergistic advantages by embedding hard-magnetic FePt nanoparticles in a degradable ZIF-8 shell, achieving a drug loading efficiency of ≈93.9% and enabling precise release in response to pH changes and radiofrequency-induced heating. Reconfigurable swarm behavior strategies significantly enhance the navigation efficiency of microrobots against physiological blood flows within complex cerebral vasculature. The ex vivo and in vivo experiments further demonstrate strong contrast characteristics of the microrobots, enabling high-resolution visualization of deep vascular structures and dynamic tracking of MMP with real-time 3D optoacoustic imaging. This multifunctional strategy paves the way for clinical translation and precision therapy in complex biological settings.
