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

Umbelliferone (UB) is a phenylpropanoid-based pharmacologically active agent with promising anti-tumor activities. However, complete elucidation of its therapeutic efficacy remains challenging due to low solubility and bioavailability. The present study aimed to develop a liposomal delivery system for UB to enhance its therapeutic efficacy against Dalton's ascites lymphoma tumor model. Umbelliferone-encapsulated nanoliposomes (nLUB) were prepared using the thin-film hydration method and performed a series of characterizations to confirm successful development. The nLUB showed a particle size of 116 ± 3.2 nm with a negative surface charge and encapsulation efficiency of 78%. In vitro study results showed that nLUB treatment significantly enhanced cellular uptake and apoptosis induction in lymphoma cells compared to free UB. nLUB treatment significantly stabilized body weight, reduced tumor growth, and improved the serum biochemical and hematological parameters of experimental animals, thereby improving their overall survivability compared to an free UB. Our result indicates that nanoencapsulation enhanced the therapeutic potential of UB, which may find its way to clinical application in the near future.
