NAD+ references: the cited studies and reviews

Every quantitative claim on this site maps to a numbered entry below, with a DOI or PubMed link for verification.

How to use this list

Each inline marker — [1], [2], and so on — across the digest resolves to the matching numbered entry here. Entries include the journal, year, DOI and a PubMed link so any figure on this site can be checked against the primary source. Reviews are labeled as reviews; preclinical and in-vitro studies are labeled as such. NAD+ figures cited from these works are reproduced for editorial summary, not endorsement.
