Photothermal Nanoheaters-Modified Spores for Safe and Controllable Antitumor Therapy.
Article in International journal of nanomedicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: To present a safer tumor therapy based on bacteria and identify in detail how the activation and infection behavior of spores can be controlled remotely by near-infrared light (NIR-irradiation) based on nanoheaters' modification. Methods: Spores bring a better tolerance to surface modification. Transitive gold-nanorods-allied-nanoclusters-modified spores (Spore@NRs/NCs) were constructed by covalent glutaraldehyde crosslink. The photothermal properties of nanoheaters before and after attachment to spores were studied by recording temperature-irradiation time curves. The controlled viability and infection behavior of Spore@NRs/NCs were investigated by NIR-irradiation. Results: In this work, a controllable sterilizing effect to activated vegetative bacteria was obtained obviously. When met with a suitable growth-environment, Spore@NRs/NCs could germinate, activate into vegetative bacteria and continue to reproduce. Without NIR-irradiation, nanoheaters could not affect the activity of both spores and vegetative bacterial cells. However, with NIR-irradiation after incubating in growth medium, nanoheaters on spores could control the spores' germination and affect the growth curve as well as the viability of the vegetative bacterial cells. For Spore@NRs/NCs (Spore:NCs:NRs=1:1:4, 67.5 μg mL Conclusion: By using NIR-irradiation, the "transitive" nanoheaters can remotely control the activity of both bacteria (germinated from spore) and cancer cells. This discovery provides basis and a feasible plan for controllable safer treatment of bacteria therapy, especially anaerobes with spores in hypoxic areas of the malignant solid tumors.
