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

Orally absorbable gold nanoparticles (AuNP) having cancer ablation therapy is strongly demanded to treat glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) for patients with its highest incidence rate. Here, we develop a milk protein lactoferrin-conjugated AuNP for its oral absorption and targeting to the GBM through the interaction between lactoferrin (Lf) and lactoferrin receptor (LfR) that is highly expressed in the intestine, blood-brain barrier and GBM. For stability and long circulation of AuNP, glutathione and polyethylene glycol (PEG) is introduced, which is called to Lf-PEG-AuNP. When Lf-PEG-AuNP are orally administered to orthotopic GBM-bearing mice, 11-fold and 8-fold higher concentrations of AuNP are measured in bloodstreams and GBM in the brain, respectively, compared with unconjugated-AuNP. Therefore, orally administered Lf-PEG-AuNP exhibit an outstanding temperature rise in GBM by irradiating laser and significantly reduce tumor volume. Collectively, we suggest that the Lf-PEG-AuNP can fundamentally target GBM in the brain through oral absorption, and that its efficient photothermal therapy is possible.
