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

We have designed multifunctional nanoparticulate reporter bioprobes capable of targeting vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), which is up-regulated in numerous inflammatory processes. These perfluorocarbon-cored nanoparticles emit a unique (19)F magnetic resonance (MR) signature, providing the potential to localize and quantify VCAM-1 expression in early atherosclerosis. Nanoparticle-VCAM-1 targeting specificity was confirmed by in vitro binding and competition studies. ApoE-null and control C57-BL6 mice (n = 6/group), fed a Western diet for 35 weeks, were injected i.v. with targeted or non-targeted nanoparticles. After two hours, kidneys were excised and prepared for analysis. ApoE-null kidneys exhibited increased VCAM-1-targeted nanoparticle content over healthy controls by (19)F MR spectroscopy (36.5+8.8 vs. 9.3+2.2 x 10(8)/g, P < .05), which correlated with increased VCAM-1 staining (2.5 +/- 1.3% vs. 0.9 +/- 0.3%, P < .05); their relative biodistributions were confirmed by fluorescence microscopy and MR imaging. These molecular imaging agents offer new approaches for detection, quantification, and longitudinal evaluation of early inflammation utilising (19)F MR spectroscopy and imaging. FROM THE CLINICAL EDITOR: Multifunctional nanoparticulate reporter bioprobes capable of targeting vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) are reported in this paper. These perfluorocarbon-cored nanoparticles offer new approaches for detection, quantification, and longitudinal evaluation of early inflammation utilising 19F MR spectroscopy and imaging.
