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

Gold nanoparticles offer a versatile platform for cancer theranostics because their high atomic number can enhance X-ray energy deposition, their plasmonic properties support photothermal and photoacoustic applications, and their surfaces allow drug loading and molecular targeting. However, therapeutic benefit remains heterogeneous because tumor uptake, intratumoral coverage, and subcellular localization determine whether deposited gold can be converted into biologically effective damage. Redox context further shapes this conversion by determining whether AuNP-triggered physical or catalytic events can overcome local buffering and propagate into durable injury. During radiotherapy, AuNPs increase local secondary electron release and ROS formation, which can intensify DNA damage when GSH-dependent peroxide detoxification, thioredoxin-related buffering, and KEAP1-NRF2-regulated antioxidant responses are insufficient to contain the redox burden. In catalytic systems, Au-containing nanozymes can convert endogenous H
