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

Targeted endocytic uptake is a first step toward tissue-specific cytoplasmic macromolecular delivery; however, inefficient escape from the endolysosomal compartment makes this generally impractical at present. We report here a targeted cytolysin approach that dramatically potentiates endosomal release of an independently targeted potent gelonin immunotoxin. Fibronectin domains engineered for affinity to EGF receptor or carcinoembryonic antigen were fused to the plant toxin gelonin or bacterial pore-forming cytolysins. These fusion proteins display synergistic activity in both antigen-specific cytotoxicity in vitro, enhancing potency by several orders of magnitude, and in tumor growth inhibition in vivo. In addition, the number of internalized gelonin molecules required to induce apoptosis is reduced from approximately 5 × 10(6) to less than 10(3). Targeted potentiation shows promise for enhancing cytoplasmic delivery of other macromolecular payloads such as DNA, siRNA, and miRNA.
