Article in Bioengineered, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Effective early detection shows the potential to reduce breast cancer mortality. This study aimed to establish a targeted contrast agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)/ultrasound dual-modality molecular radiography for breast cancer. The cyclic arginine-glycine-aspartate-gadopentetic acid-polylactic acid (cRGD and Gd-DTPA) coated by multi-functional blank poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles) was successfully constructed by chemical synthesis method with high stability. The safety of cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA was demonstrated in vitro and in vivo, and their affinity to breast cancer cells was revealed. Moreover, MRI/ultrasound dual-modality molecular radiography in vitro showed that as the concentration of contrast agent increased, the echo enhancement and signal intensity of MRI imaging were also elevated. The mouse models of human breast cancer also indicated significant target enhancements of cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA magnetic nanoparticles in the mouse tumor. Thus, cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA magnetic nanoparticles were suggested as qualified MRI/ultrasound dual-modality molecular radiography contrast agent. We further explored the targeting mechanism of cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA in breast cancer. The results showed that αvβ3 was highly expressed in breast cancer tissues, and cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA used for MRI/ultrasound dual-modality molecular radiography by targeting αvβ3. Additionally, we found that the signal-to-noise ratio of MRI was positively correlated with microvessel density (MVD). The cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA dynamicly and quantitatively monitored breast cancer by monitoring the state of neovascularization. In conclusion, in the present study, we successfully constructed the cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA magnetic nanoparticles for MRI/ultrasound dual-modality molecular radiography. The cRGD-Gd-DTPA-PLGA showed potential in early detection and diagnosis of metastasis, and dynamic evaluation of the efficacy of molecular targeted therapy of integrin αvβ3.
