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
Therapeutics involving small interfering RNA (siRNA) have enormous potential for treating a number of diseases, but their effective delivery to target cells remains a major challenge. We studied the influence of the structure and combination of targeted (folate conjugated, F13) and shield lipoconjugates (P1500, diP1500) on the ability of cationic liposomal formulations based on the 2X3-DOPE system to deliver siRNA into cells in vitro and in vivo. The loop-structured PEG lipoconjugate equipped with two hydrophobic anchor groups (diP1500) demonstrated superior performance across multiple evaluation criteria. The F13/diP1500 composition maintained a compact particle size (126.0 ± 23.0 nm), while F13/P1500 with the same PEG chain equipped with one anchor group maintained an increased particle size of 241.8 ± 65.7 nm. Most critically, F13/diP1500 preserved substantial positive surface charges (21.6-30.5 mV) across all N/P ratios, demonstrating superior ability in avoid the "PEG dilemma", whereas F13/P1500 suffered substantial charge neutralization (3.9-9.1 mV). Competitive inhibition with free folate confirmed receptor-mediated cellular accumulation of siRNA mediated by F13 containing liposomal compositions. In vivo biodistribution revealed statistically significant circulation advantages: DSPE-PEG2000/diP1500 achieved the highest plasma concentration at 15 min (1.84 ± 0.01 pmol/mL), representing the first direct in vivo comparison of compositions with PEG lipoconjugates of the same length, but formed different structures in the liposomes due to the presence of one or two anchor groups. Our findings provide critical insights for the rational design of targeted liposomal delivery systems, highlighting the importance of balanced optimization between folate targeting functionality and PEG shielding for effective siRNA delivery both in vitro and in vivo.
