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

backgroundLung cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of total deaths worldwide. Its classified into two major types including non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) based on the origin of abnormal lung cells as well as the smoking status of the patient. NSCLC is the most common and aggressive type of lung cancer representing 80%-85% of all cases. PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to present lyotropic liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNPs) as promising carriers for co-delivery of the chemotherapeutic agent, pemetrexed (PMX) and the herbal drug, resveratrol (RSV) for effective lung cancer management.

methodsThe proposed PMX-RSV-LCNPs were prepared by hydrotrope method. Hydrophobic ion pairing with cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) was implemented to increase the encapsulation efficiency of the hydrophilic PMX up to 95%±3.01%.

resultsThe tailored PMX-RSV-LCNPs exhibited a particle size of 173±0.26 nm and biphasic release pattern with a relatively initial burst release within first 3-4 hour followed by sustained release up to 24 hours. Moreover, PMX-RSV-LCNPs manifested superior concentration and time dependent cytotoxicity profile against A549 lung cancer cells with IC

conclusionPMX-RSV-LCNPs elaborated in the current study hold a great promise for lung cancer treatment.
