Telomerase-activated Au@DNA nanomachine for targeted chemo-photodynamic synergistic therapy.

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 successfully designed a smart activatable nanomachine for cancer synergistic therapy. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemotherapy can be activated by intracellular telomerase while anti-cancer drugs can be effectively transported into tumour cells. An Sgc8 aptamer was designed, which can specifically distinguish tumour cells from normal cells and perform targeted therapy. The nanomachine entered the tumour cells by recognising PTK7, which is overexpressed on the surface of cancer cells. Then, the "switch" of the system was opened by TP sequence extension under telomerase stimulus. So, the chemotherapeutic drug DOX was released to achieve the chemotherapy, and the Ce6 labelled Sgc8-apt was released to activate the PDT. It was found that if no telomerase existed, the Ce6 would always be in an "off" state and could not activate the PDT. Telomerase is the key to controlling the activation of the PDT, which effectively reduces the damage photosensitisers cause to normal cells. Using
