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

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has become a promising, noninvasive treatment modality with deep tissue penetration and precise controllability, offering a new approach for cancer treatment. Nanotechnology improves stability, targeting ability, and therapeutic efficiency of sonosensitizers in deep-seated tumors. This review discusses recent advances in sonodynamic nanomedicines for treating pancreatic, hepatic, and colorectal cancers, focusing on design strategies and mechanisms of metal-based, nonmetal-based, and hybrid nanosystems. Current challenges such as limited reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, insufficient tumor targeting, hypoxia tolerance, and biosafety concerns are discussed. Future perspectives on multimodal combination therapy, stimuli-responsive nanocarriers, and clinical translation are also highlighted. This review aims to provide insights into the rational design and clinical development of SDT-based nanomedicines for deep-seated tumors.
