Self-Assembled Nanoparticles of Silicon (IV)-NO Donor Phthalocyanine Conjugate for Tumor Photodynamic Therapy in Red Light.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and pneumatotherapy is emerging as one of the most effective strategies for increasing cancer treatment efficacy while minimizing side effects. Photodynamic forces affect nitric oxide (NO) levels as activated photosensitizers produce NO, and NO levels in the tumor and microenvironment directly impact tumor cell responsiveness to PDT. In this paper, 3-benzenesulfonyl-4-(1-hydroxy ether)-1,2,5-oxadiazole-2-oxide NO donor-silicon phthalocyanine coupling (SiPc-NO) was designed and prepared into self-assembled nanoparticles (SiPc-NO@NPs) by precipitation method. By further introducing arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) on the surface of nanoparticles, NO-photosensitizer delivery systems (SiPc-NO@RGD NPs) with photo-responsive and tumor-targeting properties were finally prepared and preliminarily evaluated in terms of their formulation properties, NO release, and photosensitizing effects. Furthermore, high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation efficiency and high PDT efficiency in two breast cancer cell lines (human MCF-7 and mouse 4T1) under irradiation were also demonstrated. The novel SiPc-NO@RGD NPs show great potential for application in NO delivery and two-photon bioimaging-guided photodynamic tumor therapy.
