Nanomaterials for the treatment of bacterial infection by photothermal/photodynamic synergism.
Review in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
In the past few decades, great progress has been made in the field of nanomaterials against bacterial infection. However, with the widespread emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, people try their best to explore and develop new antibacterial strategies to fight bacteria without obtaining or increasing drug resistance. Recently, multi-mode synergistic therapy has been considered as an effective scheme for the treatment of bacterial infections, especially the combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) with controllable, non-invasive, small side effects and broad-spectrum antibacterial characteristics. It can not only improve the efficiency of antibiotics, but also do not promote antibiotic resistance. Therefore, multifunctional nanomaterials which combine the advantages of PTT and PDT are more and more used in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, there is still a lack of a comprehensive review of the synergistic effect of PTT and PDT in anti-infection. This review first focuses on the synthesis of synergistic photothermal/photodynamic nanomaterials and discusses the ways and challenges of photothermal/photodynamic synergism, as well as the future research direction of photothermal/photodynamic synergistic antibacterial nanomaterials.
