Nanomaterials engineered for photothermal therapy in neural tumors and neurodegenerative diseases: biomaterial design, clinical mechanisms and applications.
Review in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 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 rising incidence of neural tumors and neurodegenerative diseases cause significant health, emotional, and financial burdens. Conventional treatments like surgery and chemotherapy often lack effectiveness. However, advancements in nanotechnology, particularly photothermal therapy (PTT), offer new hope. PTT is widely studied for neural tumors and neurodegenerative diseases due to its simplicity, rapid recovery, combined therapeutic potential, and compatibility with imaging techniques. This innovative approach could revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of neural tumors and neurodegenerative diseases, addressing current limitations and improving outcomes. In this article, we offer a comprehensive overview of the rational design and engineering of various nanomaterials designed specifically for PTT applications in neural tumors and neurodegenerative diseases, including organic platforms such as liposomes, dopamine, etc. and inorganic platforms such as gold nanomaterials, carbon nanomaterials, etc. A comparative analysis of these platforms examines their biocompatibility and potential for biodegradation. It also assesses their manufacturing scalability, cost-effectiveness, regulatory challenges, and ultimate potential for clinical translation. We also update the therapeutic advances of PTT in neural tumors (Glioma, Peripheral nerve sheath tumors, Spinal metastases from
