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 high metastatic rate of breast tumor is the prominent reason of its poor prognosis, while the inflammatory microenvironment of tumor tissues further promoted tumor metastasis. Although photothermal therapy (PTT) displays high antitumor efficacy, the rise of inflammation-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) during PTT exacerbate tumor metastasis. To prevent breast tumor metastasis and relieve inflammation-induced oxidative stress during PTT, herein, we developed self-assembled nanodrugs (FCP) consisting of carminic acid, iron ion, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, demonstrating photoacoustic imaging-guided PTT and anti-inflammatory activity to restrict the growth of both primary breast tumor and metastatic tumor. The as designed self-assembled spherical FCP nanoparticles (NPs, 41 nm) exhibited good light to heat conversion and broad-spectrum multienzyme (superoxide dismutase, etc.) mimetic activity to scavenge excess ROS and alleviate oxidative stress. Meanwhile, FCP NPs showed a positive correlation between the photothermal heating and ROS scavenging, allowing the continuous consumption of ROS during PTT. Importantly, owing to the intrinsic bimodal photothermal and photoacoustic imaging abilities, FCP NPs effectively guided and monitored the
