Enhancement of Phthalocyanine Mediated Photodynamic Therapy by Catechin on Lung Cancer Cells.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Worldwide, lung cancer remains one of the leading cancers with increasing mortality rates. Though chemotherapy for lung cancer is effective, it is always accompanied by unavoidable and grave side effects. Photodynamic therapy (PDT), using novel photosensitizers, is an advanced treatment method with relatively few side effects. Plant products are emerging as potent photosensitizers (PSs). The dose-dependent effect of Catechin (CA) (20-100 µM) on cellular morphological changes, cell viability, cytotoxicity, proliferation, DNA damage and apoptosis were studied on A549 adenocarcinoma alveolar basal epithelial cells. The effect of CA, along with Zinc phthalocyanine PS at 680 nm and 5 J/cm
