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

Multidrug resistance (MDR) against chemotherapeutic agents has become one of the major obstacles to successful cancer therapy and MDR-associated proteins (MRPs)-mediated drug efflux is the key factor for MDR. In this study, a redox-responsive polymer based on dextran (DEX) and indomethacin (IND), which could reduce MRPs-mediated efflux of chemotherapeutics, was synthesized, and the obtained polymer could spontaneously form stable micelles with well-defined core-shell structure and a uniform size distribution with an average diameter of 50 nm and effectively encapsulate doxorubicin (DOX); the micelles contain a disulfide bridge (cystamine, SS) between IND and DEX (DEX-SS-IND). In vitro drug release results indicated that DEX-SS-IND/DOX micelles could maintain good stability in a stimulated normal physiological environment and promptly depolymerized and released DOX in a reducing environment. After incubating DEX-SS-IND/DOX micelles with drug-resistant tumor (MCF-7/ADR) cells, the intracellular accumulation and retention of DOX were significantly increased under the synergistic effects of redox-responsive delivery and the inhibitory effect of IND on MRPs. In vitro cytotoxicity showed that DEX-SS-IND/DOX micelles exhibited higher cytotoxicity against MCF-7/ADR cells. Moreover, DEX-SS-IND/DOX micelles showed significantly enhanced inhibition of tumor in BALB/c nude mice bearing MCF-7/ADR tumors and reduced systemic toxicity. Overall, the cumulative evidence indicates that DEX-SS-IND/DOX micelles hold significant promise for overcoming MDR for cancer therapy.
