Advancements in pharmaceutical research on traditional Chinese medicine-metal complexes.
Review in Journal of pharmaceutical analysis, 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
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has gained significant recognition as an adjuvant treatment modality for cancer, infections, and inflammatory diseases, owing to its outstanding antitumor, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. With the advancement of TCM-based coordination chemistry, TCM-metal complexes have attracted growing interest in recent years. These novel compounds, formed by integrating traditional TCM components with metal ions, not only enhance the therapeutic efficacy of TCM but also exhibit unique biological activities. This review highlights the design strategies and pharmaceutical applications of various categories of TCM-metal complexes, including those based on polyphenols, alkaloids, and other drug-metal conjugates. By applying modern nanobiotechnology alongside TCM principles, TCM-metal complexes demonstrate considerable potential for the diagnosis and treatment of major diseases. Finally, this review discusses the challenges and future prospects of TCM-metal complexes in clinical applications, providing valuable insights to guide further research and development in this emerging field.
