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

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a common outcome of excessive reactive oxygen species in the cochlea, and the targeted delivery of antioxidants to the inner ear is a potential therapeutic strategy. In this paper, a novel natural biomaterials-derived multifunctional delivery system using silk fibroin-polydopamine (PDA)-composited inverse opal microcarriers (PDA@SFMCs) is presented for inner ear drug delivery and NIHL therapy. Due to their large specific surface area and interpenetrating nanochannels, PDA@SFMCs can rapidly load active biomolecules making them a convenient medium for the storage and delivery of such molecules. In addition, surface modification of PDA enables the microcarriers to remain in the round window niche, thus facilitating the precise local and directed delivery of loaded drugs. Based on these features, it is demonstrated here that n-acetylcysteine-loaded silk microcarriers have satisfactory antioxidant properties on cells and can successfully prevent NIHL in guinea pigs. These results indicate that the natural multifunctional silk microcarriers are promising agents for local inner ear drug delivery in the clinic.
