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

The presence of "cold" tumors in the tumor site is characterized with poor immune cell infiltration and resistance to conventional cancer therapies. To address these challenges, we developed an amphiphilic peptide dendrimer-based multifunctional drug delivery system for integrating photothermal therapy (PTT), chemotherapy, and immunogenic cell death (ICD) to overcome the limitations of single-modality treatments. Efficient drug delivery via the nanoplatform is realized through improving circulation stability, facilitating accumulation and penetration in tumor tissues, promoting cellular uptake, and accelerating tumor microenvironment-responsive drug release. The mitochondria-targeting property is derived from a mitochondria-specific photothermal agent and a lipophilic cationic structure in the amphiphilic dendrimer, and it allows selective mitochondrial accumulation and disruption of the mitochondrial function. In vivo and in vitro studies confirm that PTT synergizes with chemotherapy to significantly enhance therapeutic efficacy, effectively induce ICD to modulate the tumor microenvironment, and strengthen antitumor responses. This nanoplatform enhances drug delivery, induces mitochondrial dysfunction, and achieves potent therapeutic effects, therefore, it could be fine-tuned to become versatile for combination cancer therapies.
