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

Oxidative stress, i.e., excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), plays an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Catalase, an antioxidant enzyme, has great therapeutic potential; however, its efficacy is limited by its delivery to target cells or tissues. In order to achieve efficient delivery, consistent drug distribution, and drug activity, small and uniformly sized drug delivery vehicles are needed. Here, three-dimensional (3D) microcubes were printed by Nanoscribe Photonic Professional GT2, a high-resolution 3D printer, and the characteristics of 3D-printed microcubes as drug delivery vehicles for the delivery of catalase were investigated. The size of the 3D-printed microcubes was 800 nm in length of a square and 600 nm in height, which is suitable for targeting macrophages passively. Microcubes were also tunable in shape and size, and high-resolution 3D printing could provide microparticles with little variation in shape and size. Catalase was loaded on 3D-printed microcubes by nonspecific adsorption, and catalase on 3D-printed microcubes (CAT-MC) retained 83.1 ± 1.3% activity of intact catalase. CAT-MC also saved macrophages, RAW 264.7, from the cytotoxicity of H
