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

Cellular redox homeostasis, essential for physiological integrity, is disrupted by pathological oxidative stress from imbalanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism, which is a central driver of degenerative, inflammatory diseases and tumors. Platinum (Pt) nanozymes have emerged as promising therapeutic agents capable of mimicking both antioxidative and pro-oxidative enzymatic activities, owing to their partially filled d-orbitals and accessible multivalent states, thereby enabling precise regulation of cellular redox homeostasis. From a chemical perspective, this “smart switching” capability originates from dynamic changes in microenvironmental cues, such as nanozyme concentration, H2O2 levels, and pH, which alter the dominant enzymatic activity, thereby achieving dual-mode ROS regulation by toggling between antioxidative and pro-oxidative states. This adaptive duality directly addresses a fundamental therapeutic dilemma: selectively restoring redox homeostasis in diseased tissue while sparing healthy cells. Therefore, this review systematically elaborates, for the first time, an integrated framework encompassing the intrinsic redox enzymatic activities of Pt nanozymes and their “smart switching” mechanisms, offering a cross-disciplinary perspective spanning material design to disease applications. First, we delineate evolving research trends and recent advancements in Pt nanozymes for redox homeostasis regulation through a bibliometric analysis of 512 publications from the Web of Science. Subsequently, we elucidate the catalytic mechanisms governing their tunable redox enzymatic activities and discuss versatile engineering strategies for tailoring antioxidant/pro-oxidant functionalities to enable precision therapeutic interventions. Finally, we critically evaluate current translational challenges and present future perspectives on addressing multifaceted disease pathologies using Pt nanozymes.
