An intelligent responsive macrophage cell membrane-camouflaged mesoporous silicon nanorod drug delivery system for precise targeted therapy of tumors.
Article in Journal of nanobiotechnology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Macrophage cell membrane-camouflaged nanocarriers can effectively reduce immune cell clearance and actively target tumors. In this study, a macrophage cell membrane-camouflaged mesoporous silica nanorod (MSNR)-based antitumor drug carrier equipped with a cationic polymer layer was developed. As drug carriers, these MSNRs were loaded with the thermosensitive phase change material L-menthol (LM), the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) and the fluorescent molecule indocyanine green (ICG). The rod-like shape of the MSNRs was shown to enhance the penetration of the drug carriers to tumors. In the weakly acidic tumor microenvironment, the cationic polymer exhibited a proton sponge effect to trigger macrophage cell membrane coating detachment, promoting tumor cell uptake. Following nanocarrier uptake, ICG is heated by near-infrared (NIR) irradiation to make LM undergo a phase transition to release DOX and generate a synergistic effect of thermochemotherapy which kills tumor cells and inhibits tumor growth together with reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by ICG. Overall, this nanohybrid drug delivery system demonstrates an intelligent cascade response, leads to tissue-cell specific targeting and improves drug release accuracy, thus proving to be an effective cancer therapy.
