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

In cancer cells, higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) than normal cells were observed due to hypermetabolism. The redox balance in cancer cells relies on accordingly upregulated antioxidant capacity. By manipulating oxidation and antioxidant systems, chemotherapeutic drugs can selectively kill cancer cells without hurting normal cells. As three-dimensional (3D) in vitro models, such as spheroids and organoids, have become widely used in cancer research, traditional detection methods (e.g., absorption tests or titration) are inadequate for detecting in 3D environments. Thus, it is crucial to find a new method to detect oxidative stress of 3D in vitro cancer models. Here, a nanocomposite electrochemical biosensor was exploited to evaluate oxidative stress of cancer cells cultured in the 3D environment. The oxidation-regulatory capacity of honokiol, a Magnolia genus-derived anti-cancer molecule, was evaluated. A screen-printed electrode (SPCE) was modified with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) to get Pt NPs/RGO/SPCE. Then the gelatin methacrylate/reduced graphene oxide (GelMA/RGO) hydrogel was applied to immobilized NCI-H1975 in a 3D bionic environment to get NCI-H1975/GelMA/RGO/Pt NPs/RGO/SPCE. After optimizing the experiment condition, the Pt NPs/RGO/SPCE showed a detection threshold of 0.65 μM and a linear field from 1 to 10 μM for H
