Microneedle-Assisted Cell Delivery and Therapy.
Review in Research (Washington, D.C.), 2026. 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
Cell-based therapeutics hold immense promise for clinical intervention, yet their practical translation is severely bottlenecked by suboptimal delivery kinetics, safety risks, and low patient adherence. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent innovations in microneedle (MN)-based cell delivery systems and their applications across multiple organs. We initiate the discussion by evaluating progress in regenerative medicine, specifically targeting stem and immune-derived lineages. The article further classifies MN systems for cell therapy delivery according to material composition, fabrication techniques, and functional characteristics, with an in-depth discussion of innovative designs, highlighting their unique advantages. Additionally, we categorize and analyze recent studies on MN-based cell therapy for skin diseases, endometrial repair, cardiac regeneration, and oral disorders. Beyond summarizing current achievements, we critically examine the translational barriers that limit clinical adoption, including manufacturing scalability, storage stability, and regulatory considerations. This review provides a systematic and organ-specific overview that may help guide the design of improved and more clinically translatable cell delivery platforms.
