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

Paclitaxel (PTX) is one of the most potent cancer drugs; however, its low solubility and strong systemic side effects limit its clinical applications. To overcome these issues, new drug formulations and chemical modifications have been proposed. In this study, we present conjugation of PTX to hybrid collagen-cell penetrating peptide (COL-CPP) carriers. The peptide carrier is highly soluble and utilizes a unique stabilization strategy: folding into a triple helix. Here, we report the formation of PTX-COL-CPP prodrug that has similar drug potency as free PTX when tested in Jurkat (human T lymphocyte of acute T cell leukemia) cells but not in A549 (human epithelial of lung carcinoma) cells. Confocal images and flow cytometry show that this behavior originates from lower cellular uptake of COL-CPP and endosomal entrapment of the prodrug in A549, but not in Jurkat cells.
