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

Ribonucleic acids (RNA) are commonly formulated into lipid nanoparticles (LNP) for in vivo use, but challenges exist with systemic delivery and low in vivo expression efficiency. Inspired by ribonucleoprotein complexes in cells, we created synthetic ribonucleocarbohydrate (RNC) complexes based on cyclodextrin nanoparticles with ferrocenyl fluorocarbons capable of carrying mRNA and additional small-molecule drug payloads, facilitating lysosomal escape and immune stimulation all in the same nanoparticle. We show that this strategy results in highly efficient myeloid cell targeting (dendritic cells and MHC expressing macrophages) and protein expression following systemic administration. The RNC platform should have broad applications in vaccine development, immunosuppression, and immunostimulation for various diseases.
