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: Breast cancer presents significant challenges due to the limited effectiveness of available treatments and the high likelihood of recurrence. iRGD possesses both RGD sequence and C-terminal sequence and has dual functions of targeting and membrane penetration. iRGD-modified nanocarriers can enhance drug targeting of tumor vascular endothelial cells and penetration of new microvessels, increasing drug concentration in tumor tissues. Methods: The amidation reaction was carried out between SiO Results: The prepared SAIP@NPs exhibited decent stability and a certain slow-release effect in phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 7.4). In vitro studies had shown that, due to the dual functions of transmembrane and targeting of iRGD peptide, SAIP@NPs exhibited strong binding to integrin αvβ3, which was highly expressed on the membrane of MDA-MB-231 cells, improving the uptake capacity of tumor cells, inhibiting the rapid growth of tumor cells, and promoting tumor cell apoptosis. The results of animal experiments further proved that SAIP@NPs had longer residence time in tumor sites, stronger anti-tumor effect, and no obvious toxicity to major organs of experimental animals. Conclusion: The engineered SAIP@NPs exhibited superior functionalities including efficient membrane permeability, precise tumor targeting, and imaging, thereby significantly augmenting the therapeutic efficacy against breast cancer with a favorable safety profile.
