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

Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-based nanoparticles (NPs) are widely investigated as drug delivery systems. However, despite the numerous reviews and research papers discussing various physicochemical and technical properties that affect NP size and drug loading characteristics, predicting the influential features remains difficult. In the present study, we employed four different machine learning (ML) techniques to create ML models using effective parameters related to NP size, encapsulation efficiency (E.E.%), and drug loading (D.L.%). These parameters were extracted from the different literature. Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator was used to investigate the input parameters and identify the most influential features (descriptors). Initially, ML models were trained and validated using tenfold validation methods, and subsequently, next their performances were evaluated and compared in terms of absolute error, mean absolute, error and R-square. After comparing the performance of different ML models, we decided to use support vector regression for predicting the size and E.E.% and random forest for predicting the D.L.% of PLGA-based NPs. Furthermore, we investigated the interactions between these target variables using ML methods and found that size and E.E.% are interrelated, while D.L.% shows no significant relationship with the other targets. Among these variables, E.E.% was identified as the most influential parameter affecting the NPs' size. Additionally, we found that certain physicochemical properties of PLGA, including molecular weight (Mw) and the lactide-to-glycolide (LA/GA) ratio, are the most determining features for E.E.% and D.L.% of the final NPs, respectively.
