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

High-risk neuroblastoma poses significant therapeutic challenges due to tumor heterogeneity, drug resistance, and systemic toxicity associated with conventional chemotherapies. To overcome these limitations, we developed cyclic RGD-decorated solid lipid nanoparticles for integrin-targeted delivery of etoposide, aiming to enhance tumor selectivity and therapeutic efficacy. SLNs were prepared using hot homogenization and ultrasonication, with cyclic RGD peptides conjugated to the surface via non-covalent and covalent strategies. Among three conjugation approaches evaluated, maleimide-based functionalization was selected for its reproducibility, stability, and high coupling efficiency. RGD-functionalized SLNs were physicochemically characterized and assessed for integrin-mediated uptake, cytotoxicity, cell cycle effects, and apoptosis induction in SH-SY5Y (integrin-high) and SK-N-BE(2) (integrin-low) NB cell lines. RGD-SLNs demonstrated efficient peptide conjugation while maintaining colloidal stability and drug loading. Flow cytometry confirmed enhanced uptake in αvβ3 integrin-expressing SH-SY5Y cells, with moderate uptake in SK-N-BE(2) cells. ETP encapsulation within SLNs significantly improved its cytotoxic profile, with RGD functionalization further reducing IC
