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

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy is a promising approach for treating superficial infections caused by resistant strains. This study evaluated the effectiveness of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy against multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus using aluminum chloride phthalocyanine encapsulated in nanoemulsion (NE/ClAlPc) in a rat burn wound model under in vitro and in vivo conditions. In vitro, NE/ClAlPc-mediated antimicrobial photodynamic therapy was assessed for bacterial logarithmic reduction, inhibition of biofilm metabolism, and cytotoxicity on mouse skin fibroblasts (L929) using the MTT assay at 6, 12, and 24 h. Cell migration was evaluated via the scratch wound assay. In vivo, seven groups of male rats with burn wounds were treated with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. Wound areas were measured, and skin biopsies were analyzed for histological changes and mRNA expression levels of FGF1, TGF-β1, and GPX1 genes using real-time PCR. Results showed an 8-log
