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

Tumor-targeting peptides functioned as molecular probes are essential for multi-modality imaging and molecular-targeting therapy in caner theronostics. Here, we performed a phage-displayed bio-panning to identify a specific binding peptide targeting Glypican-3 (GPC-3), a promising biomarker in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). After screening in the cyclic peptide library, a candidate peptide named F3, was isolated and showed specific binding to HCC cell lines. In a bio-distribution study, higher accumulation of F3 peptide was observed in HepG-2 tumors compared to PC-3 tumors in xenograft models. After labeling with radioactive
