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

The cascade reaction of lipopolysaccharides (LPS), cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and reactive oxygen species (ROS), drives the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Herein, we construct polyethylenimide (PEI)-L/D-tartaric acid (L/D-TA) complexes templated mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (MON) (PEI-L/D-TA@MON) by mimicking biosilicification under ambient conditions within seconds. The chiral nanomedicines include four functional moieties, wherein PEI electrostatically attracts cfDNA, tetrathulfide bonds reductively react with ROS, silanol groups adsorb LPS, and L/D-TA enables chiral recognition and inflammatory localization. Following oral administration, PEI-L-TA@MON exhibiting preferential conformation stereoscopically matches with mucosa and anchors onto inflammatory intestine for lesion targeting. PEI-L-TA@MON eliminates LPS, ROS, and cfDNA, alleviating oxidative stress, inhibiting inflammatory cascade, and maintaining immune homeostasis to achieve IBD therapy. In addition, the rapid synthesis, low cost, energy-free preparation, negligible toxicity, satisfactory therapeutic effect, and facile conversion on therapeutic modes of PEI-L-TA@MON will bring changes for IBD treatment, providing research values and translational clinical prospects.
