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

purposePB is one of the most severe complications of late stage prostate cancer and negatively impacts patient quality of life. A major challenge for the treatment of cancer bone metastasis is the management of efficient drug delivery to metastatic bone lesion. We aimed to explore the use of aptamers as promising tools to develop a targeted drug delivery system for PBs. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn vivo SELEX was applied to identify bone targeting aptamer in a mouse model with PBs.

resultsThe aptamer (designated as "PB") with the highest bone targeting frequency in mice bearing PC3 PB was selected for further analysis. The PB aptamer specifically targeted modulated endothelial cells in response to cancer cells in the bones of mice bearing PC3 PBs. The targeting efficiency of the PB aptamer conjugated to gold particles was verified in vivo.

conclusionThis investigation highlights the promise of in vivo SELEX for the discovery of bone targeting aptamers for use in drug delivery.
