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

Overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and associated reactive species, specifically hypochlorous acid (HClO) and peroxynitrite (ONOO⁻), in the tumor microenvironment are critical hallmarks for early cancer diagnosis. In this work, we designed and synthesized two fluorescent probes, S1 and S2, for the targeted imaging of HClO and ONOO⁻, respectively. Both probes integrate a celecoxib ligand for COX-2 targeting with a naphthalimide fluorophore. The probes operate via a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanism, producing a distinct fluorescence turn-on response with excellent linearity against analyte concentration (R
