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

Doxorubicin (Dox) is the standard chemotherapeutic agent for acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) treatment. However, 40% of Dox-treated AML cases relapsed due to the presence of leukemic stem cells (LSCs). Thus, poloxamer 407 and CKR- and EVQ-FLT3 peptides were used to formulate Dox-micelles (DMs) and DM conjugated with peptides (CKR and EVQ) for improving AML-LSC treatment. Results indicated that DMs with a weight ratio of Dox to P407 of 1:200 had a particle size of 23.3 ± 1.3 nm with a high percentage of Dox entrapment. They were able to prolong drug release and maintain physicochemical stability. Following effective DM preparation, P407 was modified and conjugated with FLT3 peptides, CKR and EVQ to formulate DM-CKR, DM-EVQ, and DM-CKR+DM-EVQ. Freshly synthesized DMs displaying FLT3 peptides showed particle sizes smaller than 50 nm and a high drug entrapment level, comparable with DMs. DM-CKR+DM-EVQ was considerably more toxic to KG-1a (AML LSC-like cell model) than Dox-HCl. These FLT3-targeted DMs could increase drug uptake and induce apoptosis induction. Due to an increase in micelle-LSC binding and uptake, DMs displaying both peptides tended to improve the potency of Dox compared to a single peptide-coupled micelle.
