Polymeric Nanomicelles Loaded with Anandamide and Their Renal Effects as a Therapeutic Alternative for Hypertension Treatment by Passive Targeting.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We have previously demonstrated significant in vitro natriuretic effects of anandamide (AEA) nanoformulation in polymeric nanoparticles, whose size prevents their accumulation in organs, such as the kidneys. Therefore, it is of particular interest to design and test nanostructures that can pharmacologically accumulate in these organs. In this regard, we prepared and characterized polymeric nanomicelles (~14 and 40 nm). Likewise, their biodistribution was determined. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive rats (WKY), n = 3 per group, were divided into five treatment conditions: control, sham, free AEA freshly dispersed in aqueous solution or 24 h after its dispersion, and AEA encapsulated in nanomicelles. The kidneys were the main site of accumulation of the nanoformulation after 24 h. Freshly dispersed free AEA showed its classical triphasic response in SHR, which was absent from all other treatments. Nanoformulated AEA produced a sustained antihypertensive effect over 2 h, accompanied by a significant increase in fractional sodium excretion (FSE %). These effects were not observed in WKY, sham, or free AEA-treated rats after 24 h of its aqueous dispersion. Without precedent, we demonstrate in vivo natriuretic, diuretic, and hypotensive effects of AEA nanoformulation in polymeric nanomicelles, suggesting its possible use as a new antihypertensive agent with intravenous administration and passive renal accumulation.
