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

Uveal melanoma (UM) is a highly therapy-resistant ocular malignancy with an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and low tumor mutational burden. Here, we developed NP@Fla-Cu, a glutathione (GSH)-responsive nanoparticle designed to co-induce cuproptosis and mitophagy dysregulation. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent mitochondrial cell death pathway, is amplified by NP@Fla-Cu's dual functionality: its GSH-degradable shell depletes copper-chelating GSH, while its core delivers a flavopiridol-copper complex (Fla-Cu). Flavopiridol acts as a copper ionophore, driving mitochondrial copper overload to trigger cuproptosis, while hyperactivating mitophagy, causing organelle depletion and metabolic collapse. In UM intraocular orthotopic xenograft models, NP@Fla-Cu exhibited tumor-specific accumulation and potent antitumor activity. Immunological evaluation in a B16F10 murine melanoma model further demonstrated that NP@Fla-Cu effectively remodeled the tumor immune microenvironment, as evidenced by enhanced CD8
