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

purposeTargeted delivery of aerosols could not only improve efficacy of inhaled drugs but also reduce side effects resulting from their accumulation in healthy tissue. Here we investigated the impact of magnetized aerosols on model drug accumulation and transgene expression in magnetically targeted lung regions of unanesthetized mice.

methodsSolutions containing superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) and model drugs (fluorescein or complexed plasmid DNA) were nebulized to unanesthetized mice under the influence of an external magnetic gradient directed to the lungs. Drug accumulation and transgene expression was subsequently measured at different time points.

resultsWe could demonstrate 2-3 fold higher accumulation of the model drug fluorescein and specific transgene expression in lung regions of mice which had been exposed to an external magnetic gradient during nebulization compared to the control mice without any exposure to magnetic gradient.

conclusionsMagnetized aerosols present themselves as an efficient approach for targeted pulmonary delivery of drugs and gene therapeutic agents in order to treat localized diseases of the deeper airways.
