Zinc phthalocyanine loaded- antibody functionalized nanoparticles enhance photodynamic therapy in monolayer (2-D) and multicellular tumour spheroid (3-D) cell cultures.

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 conventional photodynamic therapy (PDT), effective delivery of photosensitizers (PS) to cancer cells can be challenging, prompting the exploration of active targeting as a promising strategy to enhance PS delivery. Typically, two-dimensional (2-D) monolayer cell culture models are used for investigating targeted photodynamic therapy. However, despite their ease of use, these cell culture models come with certain limitations due to their structural simplicity when compared to three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture models such as multicellular tumour spheroids (MCTSs). In this study, we prepared gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that were functionalized with antibodies and loaded with tetra sulphonated zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPcS
