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

backgroundZeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) as an emerging platform has exhibited great potential in the protein delivery owing to its tunable chemical functionality. MATERIALS AND

methodsZIF-8 was employed as a carrier for the encapsulation and intracellular delivery of RNase A, aimed to achieve a rapid release of proteins in an acidic environment. The intracellular uptake of RNase A was studied by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and the inhibition of cell proliferation after the delivery of RNase A was evaluated by MTT assay, Live/Dead staining, and TUNEL cell apoptosis analysis, using human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 as a model. The biocompatibility of RNase A@ZIF-8 nanoparticles was systematically detected through the hemolysis and cytotoxicity assay.

resultsThe RNase A@ZIF-8 nanoparticles constructed by biomimetic mineralization could not only facilitate the encapsulation of protein molecules (protein loading: 13.4%) but also maintain the enzymatic activity and stability of RNase A. The CLSM images showed that RNase A@ZIF-8 nanoparticles could efficiently improve the intracellular uptake of RNase A. Moreover, RNase A@ZIF-8 nanoparticles could obviously inhibit the cell proliferation through the induction of cell apoptosis, with 31.3% of cell death at an RNase A concentration of 10 μg/mL. Finally, RNase A@ZIF-8 nanoparticles were elucidated to possess excellent biocompatibility, with hemolysis of <5% using the same concentration of RNase A@ZIF-8.

conclusionZIF-8 could be used as an effective carrier to deliver the therapeutic protein RNase A into the cytosol, which will be beneficial for improving the efficacy of cancer treatment.
