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

Lipid-mediated delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) opened new possibilities in advanced therapies. By encapsulating an API into a lipid nanocarrier (LNC), one can safely deliver APIs not soluble in water, those with otherwise strong adverse effects, or very fragile ones such as nucleic acids. However, for the rational design of LNCs, a detailed understanding of the composition-structure-function relationships is missing. This review presents currently available computational methods for LNC investigation, screening, and design. The state-of-the-art physics-based approaches are described, with the focus on molecular dynamics simulations in all-atom and coarse-grained resolution. Their strengths and weaknesses are discussed, highlighting the aspects necessary for obtaining reliable results in the simulations. Furthermore, a machine learning, i.e., data-based learning, approach to the design of lipid-mediated API delivery is introduced. The data produced by the experimental and theoretical approaches provide valuable insights. Processing these data can help optimize the design of LNCs for better performance. In the final section of this Review, state-of-the-art of computer simulations of LNCs are reviewed, specifically addressing the compatibility of experimental and computational insights.
