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

In the present study, photophysical and photochemical properties of curcumin (1,7-bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione) and its seven derivatives, encompassing esterified curcumins and their bisdemethoxy conjugates have been studied computationally and experimentally to explore their suitability as photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy. We found out that enol forms of curcumins are more stable than keto ones. We observed that the main electronic levels of the curcumin derivatives well agree with the observed spectroscopic features (
