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

purposeConstruction of a novel PEGylated bioactive lipids-based micelle system for co-delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) and short chain ceramide (C6-ceramide) to overcome multidrug resistance in leukemia.

methodsThe PEGylated bioactive lipids-based micelle system was constructed via electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions among DOX, bioactive lipids PazPC and C6-ceramide. The micellar formulation was characterized in terms of size, zeta potential, stability and release behavior, etc., and in vitro cytotoxicity, in vivo antitumor efficacy and the underlying mechanism were further evaluated.

resultsThis novel micellar system showed small size (~15 nm), high drug encapsulation efficiency (>90%), good stability and endosomal acid-triggered release of DOX. Synergistic cytotoxic effects between DOX and bioactive lipid C6-ceramide in P-gp overexpressing drug resistant leukemia P388/ADR cells were observed. The mechanistic studies demonstrated that modulation of drug efflux system and induction of apoptotic effects by lipids were responsible for the synergistic effects between DOX and C6-ceramide in drug resistant leukemia P388/ADR cells. Using an in-vivo P388/ADR leukemia mouse model, the median survival time of the DOX-loaded PEGylated micelles with PazPC and C6-ceramide as major components was significantly greater than that of free DOX and control group.

conclusionsWe developed a novel pH sensitive bioactive lipids-based micellar formulation which could potentially be useful in delivering chemotherapeutic drug DOX and provide a novel strategy to increase the therapeutic index for drug resistant leukemia treatment.
