Doxorubicin-loading core-shell pectin nanocell: A novel nanovehicle for anticancer agent delivery with multidrug resistance reversal.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Tumor is a prevalent great threat to public health worldwide and multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumor is a leading cause of chemotherapy failure. Nanomedicine has shown prospects in overcoming the problem. Doxorubicin (DOX), a broad-spectrum anticancer drug, showed limited efficacy due to MDR. Herein, a doxorubicin containing pectin nanocell (DOX-PEC-NC) of core-shell structure, a pectin nanoparticle encapsulated with liposome-like membrane was developed. The DOX-PEC-NC, spheroid in shape and sized around 150 nm, exerted better sustained release behavior than doxorubicin loading pectin nanoparticle (DOX-PEC-NP) or liposome (DOX-LIP). In vitro anticancer study showed marked accumulation of doxorubicin in different tumor cells as well as reversal of MDR in HepG2/ADR cells and MCF-7/ADR cells caused by treatment of DOX-PEC-NC. In H22 tumor-bearing mice, DOX-PEC-NC showed higher anticancer efficacy and lower toxicity than doxorubicin. DOX-PEC-NC can improve anticancer activity and reduce side effect of doxorubicin due to increased intracellular accumulation and reversal of MDR in tumor cells, which may be a promising nanoscale drug delivery vehicle for chemotherapeutic agents.
