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

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel non-thermal ablative treatment for cancer patients with unresectable tumor. IRE kills tumor cells by applying a strong electric field across the cell membrane, thereby creating irreparable pores. Compared to conventional thermal ablation, IRE is effective in perivascular tissues and can preserve the surrounding sensitive structures. However, tumor cells may survive in the regions exposed to insufficient electric field strength, and cause tumor relapse afterwards. We prepared a doxorubicin-loaded polymeric micelles system (M-Dox) using oil-in-water emulsion. The resultant M-Dox was 37.9 ± 3.2 nm in size with a Dox loading of 4.3% by weight. M-Dox is toxic to multiple human cancer cell lines with IC
