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

purposeTo test the effectiveness of a dual-agent-loaded PLGA nanoparticulate drug delivery system containing doxorubicin (DOX) and indocyanine green (ICG) in a DOX-sensitive cell line and two resistant cell lines that have different resistance mechanisms.

methodsThe DOX-sensitive MES-SA uterine sarcoma cell line was used as a negative control. The two resistant cell lines were uterine sarcoma MES-SA/Dx5, which overexpresses the multidrug resistance exporter P-glycoprotein, and ovarian carcinoma SKOV-3, which is less sensitive to doxorubicin due to a p53 gene mutation. The cellular uptake, subcellular localization and cytotoxicity of the two agents when delivered via nanoparticles (NPs) were compared to their free-form administration.

resultsThe cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of DOX delivered by NPs were comparable to the free form in MES-SA and SKOV-3, but much higher in MES-SA/Dx5, indicating the capability of the NPs to overcome P-glycoprotein resistance mechanisms. NP-encapsulated ICG showed slightly different subcellular localization, but similar fluorescence intensity when compared to free ICG, and retained the ability to generate heat for hyperthermia delivery.

conclusionThe dual-agent-loaded system allowed for the simultaneous delivery of hyperthermia and chemotherapy, and this combinational treatment greatly improved cytotoxicity in MES-SA/Dx5 cells and to a lesser extent in SKOV-3 cells.
