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

Despite increasing reports of using silica nanoparticles (SNPs) for controlled drug delivery applications, their long-term toxicity profile following intravenous administration remains unexplored. Herein, we investigated the acute (10-day) and subchronic (60-day and 180-day) toxicity of nonporous SNPs of approximately 50 nm (Stöber SNPs50) and approximately 500 nm in diameter (Stöber SNPs500), and mesoporous SNPs of approximately 500 nm in diameter (MSNPs500) upon single-dose intravenous injection into male and female immune-competent inbred BALB/c mice. The Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of the particles was determined 10 days post-injection. The MTD of SNPs was administered and toxicity evaluated over 60 and 180 days. Results demonstrate that Stöber SNPs50 exhibit systemic toxicity with MTD of 103 ± 11 mg.kg
