Oral delivery of aptamer-decorated SICTERS Raman probes for colonoscopy-guided resection and photothermal immunization of microtumors.
Article in Science advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Endoscopic resection of colon cancer represents an advanced technique in early intervention, but faces the challenges in identifying tumor margins and removing residual lesions. Here, we developed orally administered Raman probes (i.e., BBT-Apt@CS NPs) that enable precise tumor imaging and photothermal ablation. Protected by an enteric coating for colon-targeted release, the inner nanoparticles use a stacking-induced charge transfer-enhanced Raman scattering (SICTERS) mechanism and are functionalized with tumor-targeting aptamers. In a proof-of-concept study using the endoscopic optical fiber, we achieved in situ precise detection of microtumors and effective photothermal ablation of residual lesions at the resection margins, with simultaneous induction of immune memory. In a rechallenge model, mice treated with photothermal therapy on residual lesions exhibited no tumor recurrence. We have optimized endoscopic resection strategies through theranostic Raman probes, thus providing an innovative solution for the minimally invasive precision intervention in colorectal cancer.
