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 develop block copolymer micelles as an aqueous dosage form for a potent glycolytic enzyme inhibitor, 3-(3-pyridinyl)-1-(4-pyridinyl)-2-propen-1-one (3PO).

methodsThe micelles were prepared from poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(aspartate hydrazide) [PEG-p(HYD)] block copolymers to which 3PO was conjugated through an acid-labile hydrazone bond. The optimal micelle formulation was determined following the screening of block copolymer library modified with various aromatic and aliphatic pendant groups. Both physical drug entrapment and chemical drug conjugation methods were tested to maximize 3PO loading in the micelles during the screening.

resultsParticulate characterization showed that the PEG-p(HYD) block copolymers conjugated with 3PO (2.08∼2.21 wt.%) appeared the optimal polymer micelles. Block copolymer compositions greatly affected the micelle size, which was 38 nm and 259 nm when 5 kDa and 12 kDa PEG chains were used, respectively. 3PO release from the micelles was accelerated at pH 5.0, potentiating effective drug release in acidic tumor environments. The micelles retained biological activity of 3PO, inhibiting various cancer cells (Jurkat, He-La and LLC) in concentration ranges similar to free 3PO.

conclusionA novel micelle formulation for controlled delivery of 3PO was successfully prepared.
