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

Dendrimers have been attracting growing attention because of their unique well-defined globular nanoscale architecture and numerous functional groups on the surface. Attachment of PEG to the dendrimer generates stealth dendrimers, which have promising structural advantages for drug delivery. In this study, synthetic methods were explored to deliver antiarrhythmic quinidine by stealth dendrimers. In particular, quinidine was covalently attached to anionic G2.5 and cationic G3.0 polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers via a glycine spacer, respectively. The resulting quinidine-PAMAM-PEG conjugates were characterized and confirmed by FT-IR and (1)H-NMR. In vitro hydrolysis was carried out in pH 7.4 PBS buffer at 37 degrees C to confirm the bioavailability of the conjugated quinidine.
