Solving Challenges in Microalgae-Based Living Materials.
Article in ACS synthetic biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Engineered living materials (ELMs) integrate aspects of material science and biology into a unique platform, leading to materials and devices with features of life. Among those, ELMs containing microalgae have received increased attention due to the many benefits photosynthetic organisms provide. Due to their relatively recent occurrence, photosynthetic ELMs still face many challenges related to reliability, lifetime, scalability, and more, often based on the complicated crosstalk of cellular, material-based, and environmental variables in time. This Viewpoint aims to summarize potential avenues for improving ELMs, beginning with an emphasis on understanding the cell's perspective and the potential stresses imposed on them due to recurring flaws in many current ELMs. Potential solutions and their ease of implementation will be discussed, ranging from choice of organism, adjustments to the ELM design, to various genetic modification tools, so as to achieve ELMs with longer lifetime and improved functionality.
