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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the preparation process of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticles (NPs), and to assess the bioactivity of BMP-2 encapsulated in such NPs.

methodsThe NPs were prepared by a coacervation method, and the effects of process parameters on NP size and polydispersity were examined. Polymer coated NPs were characterized with respect to amount of adsorbed polymer, particle size and zeta potential. Using bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC), biocompatibility of the NPs was investigated by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) Assay, and bioactivity of the encapsulated BMP-2 was investigated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) induction and calcification.

resultsThe size of NPs could be controlled in the 50-400 nm range by process parameters including BSA concentration, non-solvent:solvent ratio and pH value. After coating with cationic polymers, the particle size and zeta potential were significantly increased. MTT assay indicated no toxicity of both the uncoated and coated NPs on BMSC. Based on ALP induction and calcification, full retention of BMP-2 bioactivity was retained in the polymer-coated NPs.

conclusionsThis study described a preparation procedure for BSA NPs with controllable particle size, and such polymer-coated BSA NPs are promising delivery agents for local and systemic administration of BMP-2 in bone regeneration.
