Standardization of Methodology of Light-to-Heat Conversion Efficiency Determination for Colloidal Nanoheaters.
Article in ACS applied materials & interfaces, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Localized photothermal therapy (PTT) has been demonstrated to be a promising method of combating cancer, that additionally synergistically enhances other treatment modalities such as photodynamic therapy or chemotherapy. PTT exploits nanoparticles (called nanoheaters), that upon proper biofunctionalization may target cancerous tissues, and under light stimulation may convert the energy of photons to heat, leading to local overheating and treatment of cancerous cells. Despite extensive work, there is, however, no agreement on how to accurately and quantitatively compare light-to-heat conversion efficiency (η
