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

The clinical applications of many photosensitizers (PSs) are limited because of their poor water solubility, weak tissue penetration, low chemical purity, and severe toxicity in the absence of light. We designed a novel chlorin-based PS (designated as HPS) to achieve fluorescence image-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) with efficient ROS generation. In addition to its simple fabrication process, HPS has other advantages such as excellent water solubility, strong NIR absorption, and high biocompatibility upon chemical functionalization for enhanced phototherapy. HPS exhibited high photodynamic performance against lung cancer and breast cancer cells by generating a large amount of singlet oxygen (
