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

Purpose: Early diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis (AS) vulnerable plaque has important clinical significance for the prognosis of patients. In this work, the integrated diagnosis and treatment nanoparticles based on Gd-doped Prussian blue (GPB) were constructed for the fluorescence/MR dual-mode imaging and anti-ROS treatment of vulnerable AS plaques in vitro and in vivo. Methods: To fabricate the theranostic NPs, GPB was modified with water-soluble polymer polyethyleneimine (PEI), fluorescence molecule rhodamine (Rd), and targeted molecule dextran sulfate (DS) step by step via electrostatic adsorption to construct GPRD NPs. The fluorescence/MR imaging ability and various nano-enzymes activity of GPRD NPs were detected, and the biocompatibility and safety of GPRD were also evaluated. Subsequently, RAW264.7 cells and ApoE -/- model mice were used to evaluate the effect of GPRD NPs on the targeted dual-mode imaging and anti-ROS treatment of vulnerable plaque in vitro and in vivo. Results: The experimental results showed that our fabricated GPRD NPs not only displayed excellent MR/fluorescence dual-modality imaging of vulnerable plaque in vivo but also effectively utilized the nano-enzyme activity of GPB to inhibit the AS progress by ROS scavenging and the following reduction of inflammation, apoptosis, and foam cells' formation, providing a new avenue for the diagnosis and treatment of AS vulnerable plaque. Conclusion: The fabricated multimodal imaging nanoparticles with ROS-scavenging ability provided a new avenue for the diagnosis and treatment of AS vulnerable plaques.
