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

purposeTo develop an externally triggered rapid-release targeted system for treating ovarian cancer, gemcitabine (GMC) was entrapped into sonosensitive (SoS) folate (Fo)-modified liposomes (LPs).

methodsGMC-loaded LPs (GMC LPs), GMC-loaded Fo-targeted LPs (GMC-Fo LPs), and GMC-loaded Fo-targeted SoS LPs (GMC-SoS Fo LPs) were prepared utilizing a film-hydration technique and evaluated based on particle size, ζ-potential, and percentage entrapped drug. Cellular uptake of the fluorescent delivery systems in Fo-expressing ovarian cancer cells was quantified using flow cytometry. Finally, tumor-targeting ability, in vivo evaluation, and pharmacokinetic studies were performed.

resultsGMC LPs, GMC-Fo LPs, and GMC-SoS Fo LPs were successfully prepared, with sizes of <120.3±2.4 nm, 39.7 mV ζ-potential, and 86.3%±1.84% entrapped drug. Cellular uptake of GMC-SoS Fo LPs improved 6.51-fold over GMC LPs (under ultrasonic irradiation -

conclusionThese findings showed that externally triggered rapid-release SoS Fo-modified LPs are a promising system for delivering rapid-release drugs into tumors.
