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

backgroundDoxorubicin has a broad spectrum of anticancer activity, but its clinical application is limited due to serious side effects. The aim of this study was to explore a novel drug delivery system based on titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) nanoparticles for its potential role in enhancing the anticancer efficacy of doxorubicin while reducing its side effects. METHODS AND

resultsDoxorubicin was loaded into TiO(2) nanoparticles by forming complexes with the transition metal, titanium, to construct doxorubicin-titanium dioxide (DOX-TiO(2)) nanocomposites as a drug delivery system. The anticancer activity of the DOX-TiO(2) nanocomposites was demonstrated by MTT assay, and the possible signaling pathway was explored by Western blot. In human SMMC-7721 hepatocarcinoma cells, our observations demonstrated that this drug delivery system markedly increased the efficiency of drug per dosage and decreased the IC(50), resulting in anticancer efficacy enhancement and side effect attenuation.

conclusionSuch a doxorubicin delivery strategy is promising in cancer therapy. Apoptosis may contribute to the mechanism, due to protein expression of Bcl-2 being downregulated and that of Bax and caspase 3 being upregulated.
