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

Background: The activation of lymphatic vessel function is the crux to resolving atherosclerosis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disease. Rapamycin (RAPA) recently has attracted considerable attention as a potent drug to induce atherosclerotic plaque attenuation. The objective of this work was to develop a ligand-decorated, RAPA-loaded liposome for lymphatic-targeted delivery of drugs to improve abnormal lymphatic structure and function, resulting in highly effective regression of atherosclerotic plaques. Methods: Hyaluronic acid-decorated, RAPA-loaded liposomes (HA-RL) were fabricated by emulsion-solvent evaporation. The average size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency were characterized, and the stability and drug release in vitro were investigated. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo lymphatic targeting ability were evaluated on lymphatic endothelial cells and LDLR Results: HA-RL had a size of 100 nm, over 90% drug encapsulation efficiency, the storage stability was distinguished, demonstrating a slow release from the lipid nano-carriers. The mean retention time (MRT) and elimination half-life (t Conclusion: HA-RL exhibited the most appreciable lymphatic targeting ability and best atherosclerotic plaques attenuation efficiency, opening a new paradigm and promising perspective for the treatment of arteriosclerosis.
