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

Background: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a first-line chemotherapeutic agent, yet its clinical utility is limited by doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC), a dose-dependent side effect. Current drug delivery strategies fail to prevent off-target accumulation of DOX in cardiac tissue, necessitating innovative therapeutic approaches that protect the heart without compromising antitumor efficacy through targeted cardioprotection. Methods: We developed a multifunctional self-assembled nanoplatform (PGPP/NPs) via co-assembly of ginsenoside Rb1, probucol (PB), and a phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma (PI3Kγ) inhibitor (PI), with surface modification using PCM peptide for cardiomyocyte-targeted delivery. In vitro and in vivo models of DIC were used to evaluate targeting specificity and therapeutic efficacy. Mechanistic investigations included ROS detection (DCFH-DA assay), inflammatory phenotype analysis (immunohistochemistry for CD68 and CD206), and autophagy flux assessment (immunofluorescence for LC3-II). Results: PGPP/NPs demonstrated selective accumulation in cardiomyocytes compared to non-targeted GPP/NPs (p<0.05). This nanocomposite significantly alleviated DIC through antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and autophagy-promoting mechanisms. Notably, it reduced DIC severity while preserving the antitumor efficacy of DOX. Conclusion: This novel therapeutic strategy shows great promise for mitigating chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and may be extended to other chemotherapeutic agents with cardiac side effects.
