Microfluidic Electroporation: Recent Advances and Applications.
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
Electroporation is a biophysical phenomenon in which cell membranes are transiently permeabilized under an applied electric field, and it can be used for the intracellular delivery of a wide range of molecules, including nucleic acids, proteins, and drugs, and for the inactivation of cells. Microfluidic electroporation has emerged as an advanced platform offering precise control over electric field distribution, enhanced delivery efficiency, and reduced sample consumption. This chapter reviews recent advances in microfluidic electroporation with a focus on device configurations, operational mechanisms, and biomedical applications. In addition to experimental progress, we provide a theoretical foundation and also numerical simulation methods to understand electroporation at the cellular and molecular levels. Models describing the formation and expansion of hydrophilic pores in lipid membranes are introduced, including formulations based on membrane energetics and induced transmembrane potential (TMP), and the energy balance between line tension and membrane surface tension governs pore dynamics. Moreover, critical thresholds for reversible and irreversible electroporation are discussed. Additionally, a unified multiscale perspective linking electric field distribution, pore formation, and molecular transport is presented to guide the design and optimization of electroporation devices. By integrating modeling insights with microfluidic technology, this chapter aims to support the rational development of next-generation therapeutic, diagnostic, and cell handling tools.
