Benzo[a]phenoselenazine-based NIR photodynamic therapy for the treatment of COX-2 overexpressing cancer cells.

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
backgroundUpregulation of Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in a variety of cancer cell lines, a key enzyme of prostaglandin biosynthesis, relative to surrounding normal tissues results in the use of the COX-2 protein as an attractive molecular target for many anticancer therapeutics. This could have a significant implication for selective destruction of cancer cells via the photodynamic therapy effects, leaving the normal tissue intact. EXPERIMENTAL: Here, a COX-2-specific NIR photosensitizer (Se-C RESULT AND DISCUSSION: In this study, Se-C
