Cell-Penetrating Botulinum Neurotoxin Type A With Improved Cellular Uptake and Therapeutic Index.
Article in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNTA) is widely used for treating neuromuscular disorders. Despite of the various marketed products, BoNTA is known to have small therapeutic index ranging from 5 to 15. In the present study, we designed and characterized engineered BoNTA proteins with fusion of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs). We have shown that CPPs, particularly a recently reported zinc finger protein could improve the cellular uptake and intramuscular therapeutic index of BoNTA. Our study has shed the light on developing next-generation neuromuscular modulators using CPP fusion.
