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

This research aims to evaluate different-sized nanoparticles consisting of (polyethylene glycol) (PEG) poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), loaded with fluorescein isothiocyanate for nanoparticle uptake and intracellular fate in sialoadhesin-expressing macrophages, while being functionalized with anti-sialoadhesin antibody. Sialoadhesin is a macrophage-restricted receptor, expressed on certain populations of resident tissue macrophages, yet is also upregulated in some inflammatory conditions. The nanocarriers were characterized for nanoparticle size (84-319 nm), zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, and in vitro dye release. Small (86 nm) antibody-functionalized PEG PLGA nanoparticles showed persisting benefit from sialoadhesin-targeting after 24 h compared to the control groups. For small (105 nm) PLGA nanoparticles, uptake rate was higher for antibody-conjugated nanoparticles, though the total amount of uptake was not enhanced after 24 h. For both plain and functionalized small-sized (PEG) PLGA nanoparticles, no co-localization between nanoparticles and (early/late) endosomes nor lysosomes could be observed after 1-, 4-, or 24-h incubation time. In conclusion, decorating (PEG) PLGA nanocarriers with anti-sialoadhesin antibodies positively impacts macrophage targeting, though it was found to be formulation-specific.
