Physical Frameworks and Theories on How Autonomous Biological Oscillators Synchronize.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 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
Rhythms and oscillations are widely observed in biological systems. However, it is unclear how such noisy systems can produce robust and consistent timing, or how individual molecules or time-keeping systems couple together to produce macroscopically observable rhythms. Here, we focus on the synchronization of oscillatory processes at different scales: from the sub-cellular to the cellular and intercellular levels. Using examples from the circadian rhythms in cyanobacteria, cell cycle in eukaryotes, the firing of neurons, and from other emerging findings on the frontier of autonomous clocks, we discuss different paradigms of coupling or entrainment. We then highlight different methods of analysis from deterministic to stochastic approaches. Specifically, we discuss methods to quantify synchronization and its possible physical mechanisms, as well as prevailing mathematical models. Lastly, we close with a discussion of suggestions for new experiments or theoretical investigation.
