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

Osteosarcoma is the most prevalent primary bone cancer affecting children and adolescents, characterized by its high invasiveness and the challenges in treatment posed by multidrug resistance. Cancer stem cells significantly contribute to poor clinical outcomes; however, current targeted therapies remain limited in their effectiveness. In this study, we developed a novel dual-responsive nanomedicine designed to target the microenvironment of osteosarcoma cancer stem cells (OCSCs) and osteosarcoma itself, which selectively releases all-trans retinoic acid and paclitaxel, termed mPCDAP. Our findings indicate that mPCDAP rapidly releases all-trans retinoic acid to suppress stemness under conditions of elevated glutathione, subsequently increasing intracellular reactive oxygen species levels in tumor cells. This mechanism further facilitates the release of paclitaxel under conditions of highly reactive oxygen species, thereby inducing apoptosis in osteosarcoma cells. Additionally, mPCDAP was effectively internalized by both osteosarcoma cells and OCSCs, with in vitro and in vivo results demonstrating significant synergistic antitumor effects, promoting apoptosis and markedly reducing tumor stemness. This study presents a novel approach and promising prospects for targeted therapy of osteosarcoma and OCSCs.
