# CJC-1295 References — Full citation list with DOI and PubMed links

> Every citation used on this site, with author list, journal, year, DOI, and PubMed or ClinicalTrials.gov link. Compiled from the published CJC-1295 research record.

Compiled from the published CJC-1295 research record. Trace any claim on this site back to the source by reference number.

## How to read this list

Each reference is numbered to match the inline [N] markers used across the site. Where a peer-reviewed citation exists, the DOI is given; where the source is a regulatory document or a registry record, a permanent URL is given instead. Hover any inline citation marker elsewhere on the site to see the full citation; the same data is presented here in standard reference-list form for any reader who wants the full inventory in one place.
