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

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a therapeutic modality for the treatment of tumors. This technique uses a visible light to activate a photosensitizer compounds, leading to a photo-oxidation process of biological tissue that can induce apoptosis or necrosis both in vivo and in vitro. However many of the cytotoxic effects remain an open question to be investigated. The cytotoxicity to specific cellular targets of classical photosensitizers used in the PDT in vitro has been analyzed in this work. The photosensitizing effects of Chloroaluminum Phthalocyanine Tetrasulfonate (AlPcS(4)) were studied on the mitochondria, cytoskeleton and endoplasmic reticulum of HeLa cells. The cells were irradiated with a diode laser (working at 670 nm; energy density of 4.5 J/cm(2 )and power density of 45 mW/cm(2)). The spectrofluorimetric analysis of the mitochondria showed changes in membrane potential. Cytoskeleton and endoplasmic reticulum showed basic alterations in distribution after PDT treatment, as an indicator of cellular death process.
