Selenium-Curcumin-PEG Nanoparticles Radiosensitization for Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy of Lung Tumor Cells:
Article in Journal of biomedical physics & engineering, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, underscoring the need for the development of more effective treatment strategies. Radiotherapy (RT), particularly intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), has enhanced tumor targeting while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Nevertheless, radioresistance and challenges posed by the tumor microenvironment limit its efficacy. Objective: Selenium-curcumin-polyethylene glycol 600 nanoparticles (Se-Cur-PEG NPs) analyzed as radiosensitizers in IMRT for lung cancer treatment. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, Se-Cur-PEG NPs were synthesized and characterized for their potential as radiosensitizers. Results: The Conclusion: These findings suggest that Se-Cur-PEG NPs hold promise as effective radiosensitizers, potentially improving lung cancer RT outcomes.
