ROS-Responsive Glycopolymeric Nanoparticles for Enhanced Drug Delivery to Macrophages.
Article in Macromolecular bioscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Macrophages play a diverse, key role in many pathologies, including inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. However, many therapeutic strategies targeting macrophages suffer from systemic off-target toxicity resulting in notoriously narrow therapeutic windows. To address this shortcoming, the development of poly(propylene sulfide)-b-poly(methacrylamidoglucopyranose) [PPS-b-PMAG] diblock copolymer-based nanoparticles (PMAG NPs) capable of targeting macrophages and releasing drug in the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is reported. PMAG NPs have desirable physicochemical properties for systemic drug delivery, including slightly negative surface charge, ≈100 nm diameter, and hemo-compatibility. Additionally, due to the presence of PPS in the NP core, PMAG NPs release drug cargo preferentially in the presence of ROS. Importantly, PMAG NPs display high cytocompatibility and are taken up by macrophages in cell culture at a rate ≈18-fold higher than PEGMA NPs-NPs composed of PPS-b-poly(oligoethylene glycol methacrylate). Computational studies indicate that PMAG NPs likely bind with glucose transporters such as GLUT 1/3 on the macrophage cell surface to facilitate high levels of internalization. Collectively, this study introduces glycopolymeric NPs that are uniquely capable of both receptor-ligand targeting to macrophages and ROS-dependent drug release and that can be useful in many immunotherapeutic settings.
