Optical characteristics of human lung cancer for photodynamic therapy with measured absorption and reduced scattering coefficients.
Article in Journal of biomedical optics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Significance: The optical characteristics of a human lung, such as the light distribution in the tissue, are crucial for evaluating the light delivery of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for peripheral lung cancer. Aim: The light distribution in the human lung is analyzed with absorption ( Approach: The Results: The Conclusions: Our analysis revealed the influence of the optical characteristics of the lung tissue on PDT light delivery. Integration of these results with the photosensitizer dose and the degree of necrosis changes will allow us to provide more clinically relevant insight in determining PDT dosimetry.
