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

backgroundOne of the therapeutic limitations of the use of doxorubicin (DOX) as an anticancer drug is its cardiotoxicity. Its hydrophilicity also causes difficulties in achieving sustained release. The simultaneous delivery with the well-known natural antioxidant quercetin could ameliorate its cardiotoxicity. Thus, the main aim of this work is to study the potential of carboxylated and non-carboxylated mesoporous silica MCM-41 nanoparticles for double loading of the hydrophilic doxorubicin hydrochloride and hydrophobic quercetin (Q) in one nanocarrier with a modified release pattern to reduce the cardiotoxic side effects of doxorubicin in vitro.

methodsThe methods included the modification of MCM-41, single and double loading of modified and non-modified MCM-41, physicochemical characterization, in vitro release tests and kinetic study, and in vitro cell viability studies.

resultsDoxorubicin and quercetin were successfully double-loaded with encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 43 ± 4.1% and 37 ± 4.5%, respectively, in native MCM-41. The post-synthetic carboxylation led to 49 ± 4.3% EE (DOX) and 36 ± 4.0% (Q) and double lowering of the cardiotoxicity on H9c2 (IC

conclusionsA successful procedure was proposed for the efficient double loading of a hydrophilic drug and a hydrophobic drug. The carboxy-modified double-loaded nanosystems demonstrate a decreased in vitro cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin and can be considered as a potential chemotherapeutic formulation.
