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

Nanostructures encapsulating gentamicin and having either amphiphilic (N1) or hydrophilic (N2) surfaces were designed. Flow cytometry and confocal microscopy studies demonstrated a higher rate of uptake for amphiphilic surfaces. A majority of N1 were localized in the cytoplasm, whereas N2 colocalized with the endosomes/lysosomes. Colocalization was not observed between nanostructures and intracellular Salmonella bacteria. However, significant in vitro reductions in bacterial counts (0.44 log10) were observed after incubation with N1, suggesting that the surface property of the nanostructure influences intracellular bacterial clearance.
