Employing Copper-Based Nanomaterials to Combat Multi-Drug-Resistant Bacteria.
Review in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The rise of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacteria poses a severe global threat to public health, necessitating the development of innovative therapeutic strategies to overcome these challenges. Copper-based nanomaterials have emerged as promising agents due to their intrinsic antibacterial properties, cost-effectiveness, and adaptability for multifunctional therapeutic approaches. These materials exhibit exceptional potential in advanced antibacterial therapies, including chemodynamic therapy (CDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Their unique physicochemical properties, such as controlled ion release, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and tunable catalytic activity, enable them to target MDR bacteria effectively while minimizing off-target effects. This paper systematically reviews the mechanisms through which Cu-based nanomaterials enhance antibacterial efficiency and emphasizes their specific performance in the antibacterial field. Key factors influencing their antibacterial properties-such as electronic interactions, photothermal characteristics, size effects, ligand effects, single-atom doping, and geometric configurations-are analyzed in depth. By uncovering the potential of copper-based nanomaterials, this work aims to inspire innovative approaches that improve patient outcomes, reduce the burden of bacterial infections, and enhance global public health initiatives.
