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

Glioma is one of the primary malignant brain tumours in adults, with a poor prognosis. Pharmacological reagents targeting glioma are limited to achieve the desired therapeutic effect due to the presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB). Effectively crossing the BBB and specifically targeting to the brain tumour are the major challenge for the glioma treatments. Here, we demonstrate that the well-defined small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) with dual-targeting drug delivery and cell-penetrating functions, modified by Angiopep-2 and trans-activator of transcription peptides, enable efficient and specific chemotherapy for glioma. The high efficiency of engineered sEVs in targeting BBB and glioma was assessed in both monolayer culture cells and BBB model in vitro, respectively. The observed high targeting efficiency was re-validated in subcutaneous tumour and orthotopic glioma mice models. After loading the doxorubicin into dual-modified functional sEVs, this specific dual-targeting delivery system could cross the BBB, reach the glioma, and penetrate the tumour. Such a mode of drug delivery significantly improved more than 2-fold survival time of glioma mice with very few side effects. In conclusion, utilization of the dual-modified sEVs represents a unique and efficient strategy for drug delivery, holding great promise for the treatments of central nervous system diseases.
