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

Chronic transfusion of red blood cells (RBCs) to patients with β-thalassemia, sickle cell disease, and other acquired anemic disorders generates significant amounts of bioactive iron deposits in the body. The inactivation and excretion of redox active iron(III) from the blood pool and organs are critical to prevent organ damage, and are the focus of iron chelation therapy (ICT) using low molecular weight Fe(III) specific chelators. However, the current ICT is suboptimal because of the short circulation time of chelators, toxicity, severe side effects, difficult regime of administration, and patient noncompliance. To address this issue, we have designed long circulating and biodegradable nanoconjugates with enhanced circulation time and well-defined biodegradability to improve iron excretion and avoid nonspecific organ accumulation. A series of iron chelating nanoconjugates were generated with deferoxamine (DFO) as the iron(III) specific chelator using polymer scaffolds containing structurally different acidic pH sensitive ketal groups. The type of degradation linkages used in the polymer scaffold significantly influenced the vascular residence time, biodistribution, and mode of excretion of chelators in mice. Remarkably, the conjugate, BGD-60 (140 kDa;
