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

purposeErlotinib (ETB) is a well-established therapeutic for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To overcome drug resistance and severe toxicities in the clinical application, redox-responsive and pH-sensitive nanoparticle drug delivery systems were designed for the encapsulation of ETB.

methodsPoly(acrylic acid)-cystamine-oleic acid (PAA-ss-OA) was synthesized. PAA-ss-OA-modified ETB-loaded lipid nanoparticles (PAA-ETB-NPs) were prepared using the emulsification and solvent evaporation method. The tumor inhibition efficacy of PAA-ETB-NPs was compared with that of ETB-loaded lipid nanoparticles (ETB-NPs) and free ETB anticancer drugs in tumor-bearing mice.

resultsPAA-ETB-NPs had a size of 170 nm, with a zeta potential of -32 mV. The encapsulation efficiency and drug loading capacity of PAA-ETB-NPs were over 85% and 2.6%, respectively. In vitro cytotoxicity of ETB-NPs were higher than that of ETB solution. The cytotoxicity of PAA-ETB-NPs was the highest. The in vivo tumor growth inhibition by PAA-ETB-NP treatment was significantly higher than that by ETB-NPs and ETB solution. No obvious weight loss was observed in any of the treatment groups, indicating that all the treatments were well tolerated.

conclusionPAA-ETB-NPs could enhance the stability and anti-cancer ability of ETB to treat lung cancer and are a promising drug delivery system for lung cancer treatment.
