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

Lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery of mRNA to specific cell types is a necessary task for the development of safe and effective medicines. LNP delivery to the liver is largely driven by the binding of serum ApoE to the LNP surface, followed by subsequent uptake in LDL receptor (LDL-R)-expressing hepatocytes, thereby reducing their utility in nonhepatocyte liver diseases. Herein, we developed an active targeting strategy to overcome this limitation by incorporating mannose-conjugated cholesterol into LNPs. Since cholesterol comprises about half of all molecules in LNPs, we reasoned that it could serve as a scaffold for active targeting. Mannosylated LNPs enhance uptake into liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and Kupffer cells over hepatocytes following intravenous administration in mice. This process correlated with the expression of mannose receptors (CD206) in LSECs and Kupffer cells, where significantly greater LNP uptake and functional mRNA delivery occurred in CD206
