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

Organic radiosensitizers (ORSs), with structural versatility, hold promise for sensitizing radiotherapy (RT) by interacting with X-ray photons to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). They often consist of low-Z elements that have inherently low X-ray deposition capability. However, current ORSs suffer from short circulation half-lives and low tumor retention, contradicting their requirements for sustained ROS generation upon RT in tumor sites. Herein, a glutathione-responsive system is prepared, loaded with aggregation-induced emission molecules (TPEPy-I) and Ferriprotoporphyrin IX chloride (Hemin), to act as an ORS (named THN) for X-ray triggered sustained ROS generation for efficient antitumor immunotherapy. In detail, THN effectively deposited X-ray photons, which interact with water molecules to generate abundant ROS under external radiation. Subsequently, THN-mediated radiosensitization stimulated tumor cells to produce hydrogen peroxide (H
