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

Curcumin (CUR) is a natural compound with anticancer potential; however, its poor water solubility, instability, and rapid degradation limit its therapeutic use. To address these issues, we developed CUR-loaded nanoparticles (CUR-NPs) based on chitosan, hyaluronic acid, and alginate, the TEM-measured diameter of 29.3 ± 9.0 nm. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis further confirmed good aqueous dispersibility, revealing hydrodynamic diameters of 39.8 ± 7.1 nm for UL-NPs and 46.1 ± 18.1 nm for CUR-NPs. Cytotoxicity assays revealed significant anticancer activity in both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, with IC
