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

Water-soluble tetrahedral coordination cages of Ga(iii) (1) or Fe(iii) (2) were studied as carriers for FIN and FIN-ester as gold drugs (FIN = triethylphosphine Au(i) complex of 4-mercaptobenzoate or ethyl ester) in solution and in cell culture. Au(i) complexes remained encapsulated inside 1 or 2 at neutral pH even in the presence of serum proteins but were released at mildly acidic pH values (<6.5). The cytotoxicity response of 1 or 2 containing encapsulated FIN was assessed in two different cancer cell lines (human clear cell renal cell carcinoma ccRCC Caki-1 and murine colon carcinoma CT26) as well as normal cells (human fetal lung fibroblasts IMR-90) over a pH range of 7.5-6.2 and compared to the cages alone or gold drug alone. Free gold(i) complexes were the most highly cytotoxic but showed little selectivity for cancer cells compared to normal cells. FIN encapsulated in either Ga(iii) or Fe(iii) cages displayed a more selective cytotoxic response in cancer cell lines compared to normal cells. At mildly acidic pH, Fe-FIN (2a) gave IC
