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

backgroundRecently, we developed AT101, an IgM-class mouse monoclonal antibody directed against glypican-1 (GPC1), a proteoglycan that can be considered as useful target for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) treatment being specifically and highly expressed on GBM cell surface. Here, we proposed the use of AT101 as targeting agent in a drug delivery nanoplatfom to effectively deliver chitosan nanobubbles (NBs) for GBM treatment.

methodsChitosan NBs were prepared and conjugated with AT101 or left unconjugated as control.

resultsThe ability of AT101 to bind the GPC1 protein was demonstrated by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence analysis in the "GBM-like" GPC1-expressing cell lines U-87 MG and T98G. AT101 was shown to bind GPC1-expressing GBM tumor samples by immunofluorescence.

conclusionsAT101 is an useful targeting agent for the development of drug delivery nanoplatforms for GBM treatment.
