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

Metal ions are of significant importance in biomedical science. This study reports a new concept of cytomembrane-mediated biospecific transport of metal ions without using any other materials. For the first time, cytomembranes are exploited for two-step conjugation with metal ions to provide hybrid nanomaterials. The innate biofunction of cell membranes renders the hybrids with superior advantages over common vehicles for metal ions, including excellent biocompatibility, low immunogenic risk, and particularly specific biotargeting functionality. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, cancer cell membranes are used for in vivo delivery of various metal ions, including ruthenium, europium, iron, and manganese, providing a series of tumor-targeted nanohybrids capable of photothermal therapy/imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, photoacoustic imaging, and fluorescence imaging with improved performances. In addition, the special structure of the cell membrane allows easy accommodation of small-molecular agents within the nanohybrids for effective chemotherapy. This study provides a new class of metal-ion-included nanomaterials with versatile biofunctions and offers a novel solution to address the important challenge in the field of in vivo targeted delivery of metal ions.
