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

Combination therapy is a promising form of treatment. In particular, co-treatment of P3 and QBP1 has been shown to enhance therapeutic effect in vivo in treating polyglutamine diseases. These peptide drugs, however, face challenges in clinical administration due to poor stability, inability to reach intracellular targets, and lack of method to co-deliver both drugs. Here we demonstrate two methods of co-encapsulating the peptide drugs via polymer poly(ethylene glycol)-block-polycaprolactone (PEG-b-PCL) based nanoparticles. Nanoparticles made by double emulsion were 100⁻200 nm in diameter, with drug encapsulation efficiency of around 30%. Nanoparticles made by nanoprecipitation with lipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'-rac-glycerol) (POPG) were around 250⁻300 nm in diameter, with encapsulation efficiency of 85⁻100%. Particles made with both formulations showed cellular uptake when decorated with a mixture of peptide ligands that facilitate endocytosis. In vitro assay showed that nanoparticles could deliver bioactive peptides and encapsulation by double emulsion were found to be more effective in rescuing cells from polyglutamine-induced toxicity.
