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

Photothermal therapy, a type of laser application, has the ability to eradicate tumor cells by a local thermal effect and elicit a tumor specific immune response. Indocyanine green (ICG), a photosensitizer, can effectively elevate the local temperature by absorbing energy from the laser. The present study aimed to investigate the characteristics of temperature changes during photothermal therapy with an infrared thermometer in an ICG solution and in tumor-bearing mice treated with a combination of laser and ICG. Additionally, the present study observed the morphological changes of tumor tissue by hematoxylin-eosin staining following photothermal therapy. In the solution experiment, when the laser power density was 1 W/cm
