Orally delivered biodegradable targeted inflammation resolving pectin-coated nanoparticles induce anastomotic healing post intestinal surgery.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Targeted perioperative therapeutics supporting anastomotic healing during colitis are an urgent medical need. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a novel nanoparticle (NP)-based drug delivery system for improving anastomotic healing in Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients following surgery. We developed pectin-coated polymeric NPs encapsulating the inflammation-resolving peptide Ac2-26. These NPs are designed to survive gastric passage, facilitate localized release in the colon via microbial pectinase degradation, and bind to the intestinal wound through collagen IV targeting. We investigated these NPs in a murine surgical model combining intestinal anastomosis with preoperative colitis induction. Perioperative administration of pectin-chitosan coated NPs containing Ac2-26 (P-C-Col IV-Ac2-26-NP) reduced colitis activity postoperatively. Macroscopic wound closure improved, as evaluated by endoscopy and intraabdominal adhesion scoring. Microscopic analysis revealed an improved semiquantitative healing score in the treatment group. This proof-of-concept study demonstrates that novel P-C-Col IV-Ac2-26-NP could be a promising and clinically feasible perioperative treatment strategy for IBD patients undergoing intestinal surgery. The targeted delivery system shows potential for enhancing anastomotic healing and reducing postoperative complications in this IBD patient population.
