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

We fabricated poly (ethylene glycol)-block-polycaprolactone (PEG-b-PCL) nanoemulsion for drug delivery and photodynamic therapy. PEG-b-PCL effectively stabilized the interface between water and soybean oil, and the resulting nanoemulsion was about 220.3 nm in diameter with spherical shape. For photodynamic therapy (PDT), chlorin e6 (Ce6) was loaded into the nanoemulsion as a photosensitizer (PS). These chlorin e6-loaded PEG-PCL nanoemulsions (Ce6-PCL-NEs) showed efficient cellular uptake and, upon laser irradiation, generated singlet oxygen to kill tumor cells. Particularly, Ce6-PCL-NEs showed prolonged blood circulation and about 60% increased tumor accumulation compared to free Ce6 after intravenous injection to 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. These results demonstrate the promising potential of Ce6-PCL-NEs for efficient PDT and in vivo drug delivery to tumor tissue.
