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

Targeting ligands are anticipated to facilitate the precise delivery of therapeutic agents to diseased tissues; however, they may also severely affect the interaction of nanocarriers with plasma proteins. Here, we study the immunocompatibility of brain-targeted liposomes, which inversely correlates with absorbed natural IgM. Modification of long, stable positively charged peptide ligands on liposomes is inclined to absorb natural IgM, leading to rapid clearance and enhanced immunogenicity. Small peptidomimetic D8 developed by computer-aided peptide design exhibits improved immunocompatibility by attenuating natural IgM absorption. The present study highlights the effects of peptide ligands on the formed protein corona and in vivo fate of liposomes. Stable positively charged peptide ligands play double-edged roles in targeted delivery, preserving in vivo bioactivities for binding receptors and long-term unfavorable interactions with the innate immune system. The development of D8 provides insights into how to rationally design immunocompatible drug delivery systems by modulating the protein corona composition.
