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

The main current challenges in oncology are (1) avoiding systemic side effects in therapy, and (2) developing alternative treatment strategies for metastatic tumours. Nanomedicine was assumed to provide answers to these issues, but delivering enough therapeutic nanoparticles (NPs) to tumours still remains a huge challenge in nanomaterials-based treatments. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in cell communication processes and can be combined with nanomaterials to improve their targeting capabilities. In this work, we leverage the ability of EVs derived from stem cells to reach tumour areas successfully, being used as delivery vehicles for nanoparticles acting as hyperthermia agents. Once small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) loaded with NIR-sensitive hollow gold NPs reached primary subcutaneous solid tumours, they were irradiated with a NIR laser and almost complete tumour remission was obtained. More interestingly, those sEV vehicles were also able to reach multinodular areas similar to those on advanced metastatic phases, eradicating most tumour growth regions in multiple cancerous nodules located in the pancreas region.
