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

The interactions between chiral nanomaterials and organisms are still challenging and mysterious. Here, a chiral nanodevice made of yolk-shell nanoparticles tetrahedron (UYTe), centralized with upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), was fabricated to induce autophagy in vivo. The proposed chiral nanodevice displayed a tunable circular dichroism (CD) signal when modified with different enantiomers of glutathione (GSH). Notably, UYTe showed significant chirality-dependent autophagy-inducing ability after D-GSH-modification because the enhanced oxidative stress and accumulation in living cell. The activation of autophagy resulted in the reduced intracellular CD intensity from the disassembly of the structure. The intracellular ATP concentration was simultaneously enhanced in response to autophagy activity, which was quantitatively bio-imaged with the upconversion luminescence (UCL) signal of the UCNP that escaped from UYTe. The autophagy effect induced in vivo by the chiral UYTe was also visualized with UCL imaging, demonstrating the great potential utility of the chiral nanostructure for cellular biological applications.
