Novel psoralen derivatives as anti-breast cancer agents and their light-activated cytotoxicity against HER2 positive breast cancer cells.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Psoralen derivatives are well known for their unique phototoxicity and also exhibits promising anti-breast cancer activity both in the presence and the absence of UVA irradiation. However, the structure-activity relationship on this scaffold remains lacking. Herein, a series of psoralen derivatives with various C-5 substituents were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro dark and light-activated cytotoxicity against three breast cancer cell lines: MDA-MB-231, T47-D, and SK-BR-3. The type of substituents dramatically impacted the activity, with the 4-bromobenzyl amide derivative (3c) exhibiting the highest dark cytotoxicity against T47-D (IC
