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

Inflammation plays a critical role in the pathophysiology of many diseases, and dysregulation of the involved signaling cascades often culminates in uncontrollable disease progression and, ultimately, chronic manifestation. Addressing these disorders requires balancing inflammation control while preserving essential immune functions. Cyclodextrins (CDs), particularly β-CD, have gained attention as biocompatible biomaterials with intrinsic anti-inflammatory properties, and chemical modification of their backbone offers a promising strategy to enhance their physicochemical properties, adaptability, and therapeutic potential. This study evaluated and characterized the immunomodulatory effects of amphiphilic CD derivatives, which self-assemble into nanoparticles, compared to soluble parent β-CD. In a human macrophage model, CD nanoparticles demonstrated superior anti-inflammatory activity, with derivative-specific effects tied to their physicochemical properties, surpassing the soluble β-CD control. Alongside the downregulation of key pro-inflammatory markers, significant reductions in inflammasome activation and changes in lipid profiles were observed. The findings of this study underscore the potential of cyclodextrin-based nanoparticles as versatile biomaterials for treating the complex pathophysiology of various acute and chronic inflammation-associated disorders.
