1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 rapidly advancing field of theranostics aims to integrate therapeutic and diagnostic functionalities into a single platform for precision medicine, enabling the simultaneous treatment and monitoring of diseases. Photo-energy conversion-based nanomaterials have emerged as a versatile platform that utilizes the unique properties of light to activate theranostics with high spatial and temporal precision. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in photo-energy conversion using nanomaterials, highlighting their applications in disease theranostics. The discussion begins by exploring the fundamental principles of photo-energy conversion in nanomaterials, including the types of materials used and various light-triggered mechanisms, such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo-triggered SERS, and photodynamic processes. Following this, the review delves into the broad spectrum of applications of photo-energy conversion in nanomaterials, emphasizing their role in the diagnosis and treatment of major diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, retinal degeneration, and osteoarthritis. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of photo-energy conversion-based technologies for precision theranostics are discussed, aiming to advance personalized medicine.
