In situ graphene-seq: spatial transcriptomics and chronic electrophysiological characterization of tissue microenvironments.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Biological systems comprise diverse, interconnected cell types whose functional dynamics and molecular identities are tightly coupled, yet difficult to capture simultaneously at high spatiotemporal resolution. Electrophysiology provides real-time measurements of cellular activity but with limited molecular context, whereas transcriptomics profiles gene expression without dynamic physiological readouts. Here, we introduce in situ graphene-sequencing, a platform that integrates chronic electrophysiology with imaging-based, spatially resolved transcriptomics (STARmap). The system combines stretchable mesh nanoelectronics for long-term, single-cell-level interfacing with transparent graphene/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate electrodes, enabling seamless integration of electrical recording and optical imaging. By coupling electrophysiology with STARmap, the platform enables multimodal analysis of heterogeneous tissue microenvironments. We demonstrate in situ graphene-sequencing by charting multimodal profiles of human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte and endothelial cell co-cultures, examining how spatial heterogeneity is associated with electrophysiological activity and gene expression. This approach provides an integrative framework for studying how tissue microenvironments shape cell behavior and molecular states.
