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

In this article, we fabricated nanomedicines with mitochondrial targeting function and autophagy inhibitor for enhancing cancer photothermal-chemotherapy. The nanoparticles were fabricated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as cores and amphiphilic dextran with (3-carboxypropyl) triphenyl phosphorus bromide and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) modification (TPP-DCD) as shells; the chemotherapeutic doxorubicin (DOX) and autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) were encapsulated in the nanoparticles. The TPP-DCD was synthesized via the immobilization of 2-aminoethanethiol modified β-CD and (3-carboxypropyl) triphenylphosphonium bromide on dextran to receive coordination interaction with AuNPs and mitochondria targeting. The size, morphology and properties of the Au@DOX/CQ@TPP-DCD nanoparticles were studied. The nanomedicines efficiently targeted cellular mitochondria to produce reactive oxygen species and photothermal effect under NIR irradiation. The released DOX and CQ could not only kill tumor cells directly, but also inhibit the autophagy of cancer cells to enhance therapeutic effects. Both
