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

Drug delivery to specific arms of the immune system can be technically challenging to provide prolonged drug release while limiting off-target toxicity given the limitations of current drug delivery systems. In this work, we test the design of a cyclodextrin (CD) polymer platform to extend immunomodulatory drug delivery via affinity interactions for sustained release at multiple size scales. The parameter space of synthesis variables influencing particle nucleation and growth (pre-incubation time and stirring speed) and post-synthesis grinding effects on resulting particle diameter were characterized. We demonstrate that polymerized CD forms exhibit size-independent release profiles of the small molecule drug lenalidomide (LND) and can provide improved drug delivery profiles versus macro-scale CD polymer disks in part due to increased loading efficiency. CD polymer microparticles and smaller, ground particles demonstrated no significant cytotoxicity as compared to the base CD monomer when co-incubated with fibroblasts. Uptake of ground CD particles was significantly higher following incubation with RAW 264.7 macrophages in culture over standard CD microparticles. Thus, the affinity/structure properties afforded by polymerized CD allow particle size to be modified to affect cellular uptake profiles independently of drug release rate for applications in cell-targeted drug delivery.
