Micro- and Nanoengineered Devices for Rapid Chemotaxonomic Profiling of Medicinal Plants.
Review in Nanomaterials (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Chemotaxonomic profiling based on secondary metabolites offers a reliable approach for identifying and authenticating medicinal plants, addressing limitations associated with traditional morphological and genetic methods. Recent advances in microfluidics and nanoengineered technologies-including lab-on-a-chip systems as well as nano-enabled optical and electrochemical sensors-enable the rapid, accurate, and portable detection of key metabolites, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and phenolics. Integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques further enhances the analytical capabilities of these technologies, enabling automated, precise plant identification in field-based applications. Therefore, this review aims to highlight the potential applications of micro- and nanoengineered devices in herbal medicine markets, medicinal plant authentication, and biodiversity conservation. We discuss strategies to address current challenges, such as biocompatibility and material toxicity, technical limitations in device miniaturization, and regulatory and standardization requirements. Furthermore, we outline future trends and innovations necessary to fully realize the transformative potential of these technologies in real-world chemotaxonomic applications.
