Metal-phenolic nanoparticles enhance low temperature photothermal therapy for bacterial biofilm in superficial infections.
Article in Journal of nanobiotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Bacterial infections, especially induced by multidrug-resistant pathogens, have become a significant global health concern. In the infected tissues, biofilms not only serve as a source of nutrients but also act as protective barriers that impede antibiotic penetration. Herein, we developed tea polyphenols epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) Au nanoparticles (E-Au NPs) through direct one-step self-assembly methods by EGCG chelating with Au ions to eradicate antibiotic-resistant bacteria methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and prevent the formation of biofilm under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. The outstanding antibacterial effect involved in mild photothermal therapy, reactive oxygen species production, pathogenicity-related genes regulation, and quinoprotein formation that were specific to the polyphenol-based NPs. The excellent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory therapeutic efficacy of E-Au NPs was validated and topically applied in murine MRSA-infected skin wounds and keratitis model in vivo to kill bacteria, reduce the inflammation response and promote wound healing. Furthermore, the ophthalmic and systemic biosafety profiles were thoroughly evaluated while no significant side effects were revealed achieving a balance between high-efficiency antibacterial properties and biocompatibility. This study provides an effective therapeutic agent of metal-phenolic materials for superficial tissue infection with favorable prognosis and potential in clinical translation.
