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

In this work, the preparation of inclusion complexes, (ICs) using magnesium phthalocyanine (MgPc) and various cyclodextrins (β-CD, γ-CD, HP-β-CD, Me-β-CD), using the kneading method is presented. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) indicated that the particles in dispersion possessed mean size values between 564 to 748 nm. The structural characterization of the ICs by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy provides evidence of the formation of the ICs. The release study of the MgPc from the different complexes was conducted at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, and indicated that a rapid release ("burst effect") of ~70% of the phthalocyanine occurred in the first 20 min. The kinetic model that best describes the release profile is the Korsmeyer-Peppas. The photodynamic therapy studies against the squamous carcinoma A431 cell line indicated a potent photosensitizing activity of MgPc (33% cell viability after irradiation for 3 min with 18 mW/cm
