Morphology-Dependent Interaction of Silica Nanoparticles with Intestinal Cells: Connecting Shape to Barrier Function.
Article in Nano letters, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
The intestinal compartment ensures nutrient absorption and barrier function against pathogens. Despite decades of research on the complexity of the gut, the adaptive potential to physical cues, such as those derived from interaction with particles of different shapes, remains less understood. Taking advantage of the technological versatility of silica nanoparticles, spherical, rod-shaped, and virus-like materials were synthesized. Morphology-dependent interactions were studied on differentiated Caco-2/HT29-MTX-E12 cells. Contributions of shape, aspect ratio, surface roughness, and size were evaluated considering the influence of the mucus layer and intracellular uptake pathways. Small particle size and surface roughness favored the highest penetration through the mucus but limited interaction with the cell monolayer and efficient internalization. Particles of a larger aspect ratio (rod-shaped) seemed to privilege paracellular permeation and increased cell-cell distances, albeit without hampering barrier integrity. Inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis and chemical modulation of cell junctions effectively tuned these responses, confirming morphology-specific interactions elicited by bioinspired silica nanomaterials.
