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
Designing molecules with donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) architecture plays an important role in obtaining second near-infrared region (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) fluorescent dyes for biomedical applications; however, this always comes with a challenge due to very limited electronic acceptors. On the other hand, to endow NIR-II fluorescent dyes with combined therapeutic applications, trivial molecular design is indispensable. Herein, we propose a pyrazine-based planar electronic acceptor with a strong electron affinity, which can be used to develop NIR-II fluorescent dyes. By structurally attaching two classical triphenylamine electronic donors to it, a basic D-A-D module, namely Py-NIR, can be generated. The planarity of the electronic acceptor is crucial to induce a distinct NIR-II emission peaking at ∼1100 nm. The unique construction of the electronic acceptor can cause a twisted and flexible molecular conformation by the repulsive effect between the donors, which is essential to the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) property. The tuned intramolecular motions and twisted D-A pair brought by the electronic acceptor can lead to a remarkable photothermal conversion with an efficiency of 56.1% and induce a type I photosensitization with a favorable hydroxyl radical (OH˙) formation. Note that no additional measures are adopted in the molecular design, providing an ideal platform to realize NIR-II fluorescent probes with synergetic functions based on such an acceptor. Besides, the nanoparticles of Py-NIR can exhibit excellent NIR-II fluorescence imaging towards orthotopic 4T1 breast tumors in living mice with a high sensitivity and contrast. Combined with photothermal imaging and photoacoustic imaging caused by the thermal effect, the imaging-guided photoablation of tumors can be well performed. Our work has created a new opportunity to develop NIR-II fluorescent probes for accelerating biomedical applications.
