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

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive tumor of the central nervous system and remains universally lethal due to lack of effective treatment options and their inefficient delivery to the brain. Here the development of multifunctional polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) for effective treatment of GBM is reported. The NPs are synthesized using a novel glutathione (GSH)-reactive poly (2,2″-thiodiethylene 3,3″-dithiodipropionate) (PTD) polymer and engineered for brain penetration through neutrophil elastase-triggered shrinkability, iRGD-mediated targeted delivery, and lexiscan-induced autocatalysis. It is found that the resulting lexiscan-loaded, iRGD-conjugated, shrinkable PTD NPs, or LiPTD NPs, efficiently penetrate brain tumors with high specificity after intravenous administration. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that LiPTD NPs are capable of efficient encapsulation and delivery of chemotherapy doxorubicin and sonosensitizer chlorin e6 to achieve combined chemotherapy and sonodynamic therapy (SDT). It is demonstrated that the capability of GSH depletion of LiPTD NPs further augments the tumor cell killing effect triggered by SDT. As a result, treatment with LiPTD NPs effectively inhibits tumor growth and prolongs the survival of tumor-bearing mice. This study may suggest a potential new approach for effective GBM treatment.
