Effect of Neutron Radiation on
Article in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Melanoma is an aggressive disease that arises from mutations in the cells that produce the pigment melanin, melanocytes. Melanoma is characterized by a high mortality rate, due to avoidance of applied therapies and metastasis to other organs. The peculiar features of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), particularly its cell-level selectivity, make BNCT a promising modality for melanoma treatment. However, appropriate cellular models should be used to study new therapies or improve the efficacy of existing therapies. Spheroids, which have been used for years for in vitro studies of the efficacy of anti-cancer therapies, have many characteristics shared with tumors through which they can increase the accuracy of the cellular response compared to 2D culture in vitro studies and reduce the use of animals for research in the future. To the best of our knowledge, when we started researching the use of spheroids in BNCT in vitro, there was no publication showing such use. Our study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a 3D cellular model (spheroids) for testing BNCT on melanoma cells. We assessed boronophenylalanine (
