Surfactant-Enabled Nanocarriers in Breast Cancer Therapy: Targeted Delivery and Multidrug Resistance Reversal.
Review in Pharmaceutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality among women worldwide. Its treatment is complicated by molecular heterogeneity and the frequent development of multidrug resistance (MDR). Conventional drug delivery approaches are often limited by poor aqueous solubility, rapid systemic clearance, non-specific biodistribution, and off-target toxicity. This review will critically explore the possibility of surfactant-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) in addressing the constraints of standard breast cancer treatments. It focuses on the mechanisms by which surfactants promote solubility, facilitate cellular uptake, and overcome drug resistance, while also analyzing current therapeutic success and future directions. A thorough review of preclinical and clinical investigations was undertaken, focusing on important surfactant-based DDSs such as polymeric micelles, nanoemulsions, liposomes, and self-emulsifying systems (SEDDSs). Mechanistic insights into surfactant functions, such as membrane permeabilization and efflux pump inhibition, were studied alongside delivery systems incorporating ligands and co-loaded medicines.
