In vitro antitumor efficacy of hyaluronic acid coating for curcumin-loaded zeolitic imidazole frameworks-8 (ZIF-8) versus that of uncoated curcumin-loaded ZIF-8 nanocomposites.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cancer continues to pose one of the biggest health burdens. Liver cancer has difficulties with early detection, efficient treatment and treatment resistance. Zeolitic imidazole framework-8(ZIF-8) is a type of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) that has a lot of useful properties; including its structural flexibility, high porosity and adjustable pore sizes, these make such framework good for drug delivery for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and breast cancer. In the present study, curcumin was loaded into ZIF-8, and hyaluronic acid was applied as coat in a step-by-step, molar ratio, and pH-dependent manner. The resulting curcumin-loaded ZIF-8 (CZIF-8) and curcumin-loaded ZIF-8 coated with hyaluronic acid (CZIF-8/HA) nanocomposites were characterized by zeta potential, SEM, TEM, and PXRD. The obtained irregular semi-spherical nanocomposites have an average particle size of 127.93 and 131.07 nm; respectively. Also, their anticancer activities against two cancerous cell lines (HepG-2 and MDA-MB-231) and non-cancerous cell line (MCR-5) were assessed in vitro along with reference drug such as doxorubicin using the MTT assay. Additionally, the mechanisms by which these nanocomposites kill these tumor cells were found to involve apoptosis (elevated caspase-3 expression) rather than necrotic one and cell cycle arresting at G1/S phase. These particles have lower IC
