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

Metal-organic networks have attracted widespread interest owing to their hybrid physicochemical properties. Natural biomolecules represent attractive building blocks for these materials because of their inherent biological function and high biocompatibility; however, assembling them into coordination network materials, especially nanoparticles (NPs), is challenging. Herein, we exploit the coordination between metal ions and phosphonate groups, which are present in many biomolecules, to form metal-biomolecule network (MBN) NPs in aqueous solution at room temperature. Various phosphonate-containing biomolecules, including plant phytate, DNA, and proteins, were used to assemble MBN NPs with tunable physicochemical properties (e.g., size). In addition to excellent biocompatibility and high cargo-loading efficiency (>95%), these two-component MBN NPs have various biological functionalities, including endosomal escape, immune regulation, and molecular recognition, thus offering advantages over nonbiomolecular-based coordination materials. This work expands our understanding of metal-organic chemistry with the emerging class of metal-biomolecule systems and provides a pathway for incorporating biofunctionalities into advanced coordination materials for diverse fields.
