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
Herein, novel silicon (IV) phthalocyanines peripherally substituted by triethylene glycol groups and bearing axial hydroxyl groups were synthesized and fully characterized by using different analyses techniques. The photophysical and photochemical properties of octa (2a) and tetra (2b) derivatives were investigated in DMF and DMSO. The effect of octa or tetra substitution on fluorescence quantum yield, singlet oxygen generation and photodegradation were examined, and the differences were evaluated regarding their potential efficiency in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Their pH-responses were investigated to determine the influence of protonation of azomethine nitrogen atoms on singlet oxygen generation efficiencies. Dramatic optical changes were observed by protonation of azomethine bridges of 2a and 2b. They exhibited signal decrease from pH 4.0 to 1.0 for 2a (pKa = 2.6) and pH 3.0 to 1.0 for 2b (pKa = 1.8). Besides, the compounds exhibited no aggregation tendency, moderate fluorescence quantum yield, solubility in common organic solvents, high singlet oxygen quantum yield and high photostability in DMF and in DMSO, these favorable properties making them good candidates as photosensitizer for PDT.
