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

We report a formulation of near-infrared (near-IR) phosphorescent polymeric nanomicelles and their use for in vivo high-contrast optical imaging, targeting, and detection of tumors in small animals. Near-IR phosphorescent molecules of Pt(II)-tetraphenyltetranaphthoporphyrin (Pt(TPNP)) were found to maintain their near-IR phosphorescence properties when encapsulated into phospholipid nanomicelles. The prepared phosphorescent micelles are of approximately 100 nm size and are highly stable in aqueous suspensions. A large spectral separation between the Pt(TPNP) absorption, with a peak at approximately 700 nm, and its phosphorescence emission, with a peak at approximately 900 nm, allows a dramatic decrease in the level of background autofluorescence and scattered excitation light in the near-IR spectral range, where the signal from the phosphorescent probe is observed. In vivo animal imaging with subcutaneously xenografted tumor-bearing mice has resulted in high contrast optical images, indicating highly specific accumulation of the phosphorescent micelles into tumors. Using optical imaging with near-IR phosphorescent nanomicelles, detection of smaller, visually undetectable tumors has also been demonstrated.
