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

The unique permselectivity of cellular membranes is of crucial importance to maintain intracellular homeostasis while adapting to microenvironmental changes. Although liposomes and polymersomes have been widely engineered to mimic microstructures and functions of cells, it still remains a considerable challenge to synergize the stability and permeability of artificial cells and to imitate local milieu fluctuations. Herein, we report concurrent crosslinking and permeabilizing of pH-responsive polymersomes containing Schiff base moieties within bilayer membranes via enzyme-catalyzed acid production. Notably, this synergistic crosslinking and permeabilizing strategy allows tuning of the mesh sizes of the crosslinked bilayers with subnanometer precision, showing discriminative permeability toward maltooligosaccharides with molecular sizes of ~1.4-2.6 nm. The permselectivity of bilayer membranes enables intravesicular pH oscillation, fueled by a single input of glucose. This intravesicular pH oscillation can further drive the dissipative self-assembly of pH-sensitive dipeptides. Moreover, the permeabilization of polymersomes can be regulated by intracellular pH gradient as well, enabling the controlled release of encapsulated payloads.
