Light-Activated Anti-Vascular Combination Therapy against Choroidal Neovascularization.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) underlies the crux of many angiogenic eye disorders. Although medications that target vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are approved for treating CNV, their effectiveness in destroying new blood vessels is limited, and invasive intravitreal administration is required. Additionally, other drugs that destroy established neovessels, such as combretastatin A-4, may have systemic side effects that limit their therapeutic benefits. To overcome these shortcomings, a two-pronged anti-vascular approach is presented for CNV treatment using a photoactivatable nanoparticle system that can release a VEGF receptor inhibitor and a vascular disrupting agent when irradiated with 690 nm light. The nanoparticles can be injected intravenously to enable anti-angiogenic and vascular disrupting combination therapy for CNV through light irradiation to the eyes. This approach can potentiate therapeutic effects while maintaining a favorable biosafety profile for choroidal vascular diseases.
