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

A novel GHH copolymer was synthesized using hyaluronic acid modified with glycyrrhetinic acid and L‑histidine (His), and doxorubicin‑loaded GHH nanoparticles (DOX/GHH) were prepared for liver‑targeted drug delivery and pH‑responsive drug release. In the present study, GHH nanoparticles were characterized, and their pH‑responsive behaviors were evaluated at different pH levels. The antitumor effect of the DOX/GHH nanoparticles was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Results showed that the DOX/GHH nanoparticles were spherical, and the particle sizes ranged from 238.1 to 156.7 nm with an increase in the degree of substitution of His. The GHH nanoparticles were obviously internalized into human hepatoblastoma cells. In vitro cytotoxicity assay results showed that the DOX/GHH nanoparticles exhibited a dose‑dependent antitumor effect. Compared with free DOX, the DOX/GHH nanoparticles displayed higher antitumor efficacy. These results indicate that GHH nanoparticles could be a promising nano‑delivery carrier of hydrophobic drugs for liver‑targeted therapy.
