MR imaging tracking of inflammation-activatable engineered neutrophils for targeted therapy of surgically treated glioma.
Article in Nature communications, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 90 papers.
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.
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
Cell-based drug delivery systems have shown promising capability for tumor-targeted therapy owing to the intrinsic tumor-homing and drug-carrying property of some living cells. However, imaging tracking of their migration and bio-effects is urgently needed for clinical application, especially for glioma. Here, we report the inflammation-activatable engineered neutrophils by internalizing doxorubicin-loaded magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (ND-MMSNs) which can provide the potential for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging tracking of the drug-loaded cells to actively target inflamed brain tumor after surgical resection of primary tumor. The phagocytized D-MMSNs possess high drug loading efficiency and do not affect the host neutrophils' viability, thus remarkably improving intratumoral drug concentration and delaying relapse of surgically treated glioma. Our study offers a new strategy in targeted cancer theranostics through combining the merits of living cells and nanoparticle carriers.
