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

High-Z materials enhance radiation dose deposition primarily through strong photoelectric absorption. Leveraging this property, nanoparticles based on high-Z content materials can be utilized as nanoscale radiosensitizers to enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy. Notably, gold nanoparticles (Au: gold, AuNPs) have been intensively investigated due to their excellent radiosensitizing effect and straightforward synthesis process. However, without additional modifications, they suffer from unfavorable biodistribution and inefficient tumor targeting, which limit their efficacy as radiosensitizers. Herein, we developed ultrasmall AuNPs encapsulated in PEGylated liposome (PEG: polyethylene glycol, Au-Lipo) and optimized their PEGylated lipid composition to improve their performance as radiosensitizers. Au-Lipo formulation was synthesized and optimized to exhibit good stability and cellular uptake
