Cell-Level Analysis Visualizing Photodynamic Therapy with Porphylipoprotein and Talaporphyrin Sodium.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
We revealed the difference in the mechanism of photodynamic therapy (PDT) between two photosensitizers: porphylipoprotein (PLP), which has recently attracted attention for its potential to be highly effective in treating cancer, and talaporphyrin sodium (NPe6). (1) NPe6 accumulates in lysosomes, whereas PLP is incorporated into phagosomes formed by PLP injection. (2) PDT causes NPe6 to generate reactive oxygen species, thereby producing actin filaments and stress fibers. In the case of PLP, however, reactive oxygen species generated by PDT remain in the phagosomes until the phagosomal membrane is destroyed, which delays the initiation of RhoA activation and RhoA*/ROCK generation. (4) After the disruption of the phagosomal membrane, however, the outflow of various reactive oxygen species accelerates the production of actin filaments and stress fibers, and blebbing occurs earlier than in the case of NPe6. (5) PLP increases the elastic modulus of cells without RhoA activity in the early stage. This is because phagosomes are involved in polymerizing actin filaments and pseudopodia formation. Considering the high selectivity and uptake of PLP into cancer cells, a larger effect with PDT can be expected by skillfully combining the newly discovered characteristics, such as the appearance of a strong effect at an early stage.
