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

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles are emerging as one of the promising nanomaterials for biomedical applications, but their systemic toxicity in vivo has received little attention. In the present study, the effects of inorganic nanoparticle aggregation on their systemic toxicity were examined. Remarkably, aggregation was observed after the mixing of naked LDH nanoparticles with saline or erythrocytes. Significant accumulation of the naked LDH nanoparticles in the lungs of mice was detected 1 h after intravenous administration, and the survival rate of mice was 0% after 6 repeated injections. Furthermore, flocculent precipitates in the alveoli and congestion in the lung interstitium were observed in the dead mice. However, lipid membrane-coated LDH nanoparticles would not form aggregates and could be injected intravenously >6 times without causing death. These findings suggested that repeated injections of LDH were lethal even at low dose (30 mg/kg), and lipid membrane coating can be considered as an approach for reducing this risk.
