One-Step Coordinated Multi-Kinetic 4D Printing of Human Vascularized Cardiac Tissues with Selective Fast-Shrinking Capillaries.
Article in Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The field of 3D bioprinting has made substantial progress in recent years, enabling the fabrication of vascular networks within engineered tissues to support the efficient transfer of oxygen and nutrients. However, a critical limitation remains: the restricted resolution of cell-laden bioink hydrogels, which impedes the precise formation of microscale structures such as capillaries. In this study, a novel, sequential, one-step bioprinting approach is introduced that enables the deposition of multiple cell-laden bioinks, facilitating the fabrication of functional, complex cardiac tissues with hierarchical microvasculature. Remarkably, this strategy enables pre-designed blood vessels to undergo selective shrinkage to capillary-scale dimensions within the parenchymal tissue under physiological conditions. Engineered cardiac tissues with perfusable, endothelialized vascular networks exhibit robust contractile function, and in vivo implantation demonstrate successful anastomosis of the vasculature with the host. This bioprinting strategy represents a significant advancement in the engineering of physiologically relevant tissue architectures, paving the way for the development of functional organotypic constructs for regenerative medicine and transplantation.
