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

Described here is the first example of the construction of multifunctional drug delivery systems by employing an amphiphilic micromolecule. The intrinsic aggregation-induced emissive and tumor-targeting amphiphilic conjugate of β-d-galactose with tetraphenylethene (TPE-Gal), in which the hydrophobic TPE moiety spontaneously acts as the imaging chromophore and the hydrophilic Gal moiety spontaneously acts as the targeting ligand and galactosidase trigger, can self-assemble into fluorescent vesicles that can efficiently load both water-soluble and -insoluble anticancer drugs. In vitro and in vivo evaluations revealed that the pH/β-d-galactosidase dual-responsive doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded vesicles TPE-Gal@DOX exhibited good targeting effect and higher antitumor efficacy than free DOX. H&E staining analysis displayed remarkable necroses and weak cell proliferation in the tumor area and no toxicity to major organs, indicating the superior targeting antitumor therapeutic efficacy of TPE-Gal@DOX.
