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

Hydroxyl radical (•OH)-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging antitumor strategy, however, acid deficiency in the tumor microenvironment (TME) hampers its efficacy. In this study, a new injectable hydrogel was developed as an acid-enhanced CDT system (AES) for improving tumor therapy. The AES contains iron-gallic acid nanoparticles (FeGA) and α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (α-CHCA). FeGA converts near-infrared laser into heat, which results in agarose degradation and consequent α-CHCA release. Then, as a monocarboxylic acid transporter inhibitor, α-CHCA can raise the acidity in TME, thus contributing to an increase in ·OH-production in FeGA-based CDT. This approach was found effective for killing tumor cells both
