1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Catalytic biomass valorization into value-added chemicals is crucial to reduce reliance on fossil resources and mitigate environmental impacts. However, more than 90% of chemical manufacturing still relies on conventional catalysts, underscoring the need for sustainable alternatives. Three-dimensional (3D) printing offers unique opportunities to design catalysts with tailored geometries and pore architectures, enhancing mass transfer, active site accessibility, and reusability. Most reviews of 3D-printed catalysts focus on small molecule reactions such as ammonia decomposition or methanol dehydration. In contrast, this review was conceived to provide a comprehensive overview on the design and application of 3D-printed catalysts in biomass conversion. Recent advances in metal-based, acid/base-mediated, enzymatic and photocatalytic systems are discussed, while assessing the benefits and drawbacks of 3D printing compared to traditional catalyst fabrication. By addressing current challenges and outlining future directions, this review highlights the capacity of 3D-printed catalysts to bridge laboratory innovation and industrial application, paving the way for scalable, cost-effective, and sustainable green chemical manufacturing in the emerging circular bioeconomy.
