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

Organically modified silica (ORMOSIL) nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in biomedicine. However, their cell uptake process has not yet been characterised in detail. Here, we investigated the mechanism underlying endocytosis and subcellular localisation of ORMOSIL NPs. Exposure to ORMOSIL NPs induced a decrease in cell viability and increase in lactate dehydrogenase release in a dose-dependent manner in A549 cells. Once internalised, ORMOSIL NPs were translocated from early endosomes to the lysosomes, where they accumulated. Furthermore, deficiency of autophagosomal/lysosomal fusion failed to block lysosomal localisation of ORMOSIL NPs, suggesting that autophagy was not involved in the final lysosomal accumulation of ORMOSIL NPs. Meanwhile, an inhibitor of caveolae-mediated endocytosis, rather than inhibitors of phagocytosis or clathrin-mediated endocytosis, succeeded in blocking ORMOSIL NP cell uptake, indicating the involvement of caveolae-mediated endocytosis. Together, these results provide a new understanding of the toxicity, and suggest better biomedical applications, of ORMOSIL NPs.
