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

Oral drug delivery systems had natural potential for colorectal cancer drug therapy. While the drug delivery efficiency is severely hindered by the complex intestinal barriers, especially mucus and epithelium barriers, resulting in unsatisfactory therapeutic effects and limited clinical translation. In this work, a bioactive self-thermophoretic and gas dual-driven nanomotor is developed for colorectal cancer therapy through efficient intestinal mucus and epithelial barrier penetration. The nanomotor shows intestinal mucus barrier penetration and the paracellular pathway reversibly opening properties of intestinal epithelium barrier, increasing the delivery efficiency of cisplatin by 3.5 folds. Owing to the targeted delivery of cisplatin and the reduced side effects on normal intestinal tissues, the therapeutic efficiency of the nanomotor for colorectal cancer in vivo is as high as 98.6%. With autonomous and reversible intestinal barriers penetration property, the nanoplatform may innovate the current oral drug delivery.
