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

Introduction: Osteosarcoma is a prevalent and highly malignant primary bone tumor. However, current clinical therapeutic drugs for osteosarcoma are not suitable for long-term use due to significant side effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new drugs with fewer side effects. Dipsacus asperoides C. Y. Cheng et T. M. Ai, a traditional Chinese medicine, is commonly used for its anti-inflammatory, anti-pain, bone fracture healing, and anti-tumor effects. In this study, we investigated the effects of exosome-like nanoparticles derived from Dipsacus asperoides (DAELNs) on osteosarcoma cells in vitro and in vivo. Methods: DAELNs were isolated and purified from Dipsacus asperoides and their physical and chemical properties were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). The cellular uptake of DAELNs in osteosarcoma cells was analyzed by PKH26 staining. The proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells were assessed using CCK8 assay, EdU assay, colony-formation assay, transwell assay, wound healing assay, and mitochondrial membrane potential measurement, respectively. The regulatory mechanism of DAELNs inhibiting the progression of osteosarcoma via activating P38/JNK signaling pathway was investigated using Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Moreover, the therapeutic effects of DAELNs were evaluated using in vivo small animal imaging assay, HE staining, and immunohistochemistry. Results: Our results showed that DAELNs inhibited the proliferation, invasion, migration, and fostered the apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells in vitro and suppressed the tumor growth of osteosarcoma cells in a xenograft nude mouse model. Furthermore, the bio-distribution of DiD-labeled DAELNs showed preferential targeting of osteosarcoma tumors and excellent biosafety in histological analysis of the liver and kidney. Mechanistically, DAELNs activated the P38/JNK signaling pathway-induced apoptosis. Conclusion: Taken together, DAELNs are novel, natural, and osteosarcoma-targeted agents that can serve as safe and effective therapeutic approaches for the treatment of osteosarcoma.
