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

backgroundNanoparticles (NPs) are a class of substances that can be loaded with therapeutic agents delivered to specific areas. In our earlier research, we identified a neuron-derived circular RNA (circRNA), circular oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (CircOGDH), as a promising therapeutic target for acute ischaemic stroke. This study dedicated to explore a prospective preliminary strategy of CircOGDH-based NP delivered to the ischaemic penumbra region in middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) mice.

methodsImmunofluorescence in primary cortex neurons and in vivo fluorescence imaging revealed endocytosis of Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) poly amidoamine(PAMAM)@CircOGDH small interfering RNA (siRNA) NPs. Western blotting analysis and CCK8 assay were performed to evaluate the apoptotic level in ischaemic neurons treated with PLGA-PAMAM@CircOGDH siRNA NPs. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR experiments, mice behaviour test, T2 MRI analysis, Nissl and TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) co-staining were performed to evaluate the apoptosis level of ischaemic penumbra neurons in MCAO/R mice. Biosafety evaluation of NPs in MCAO/R mice was detected by blood routine examination, liver and kidney function examination and HE staining.

resultsPLGA-PAMAM@CircOGDH siRNA NPs were successfully assembled. Endocytosis of PLGA-PAMAM@CircOGDH siRNA NPs in ischaemic neurons alleviated neuronal apoptotic level in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, mice behaviour test showed that the neurological defects of MCAO/R mice were significantly alleviated after the tail injection of PLGA-PAMAM@CircOGDH siRNA NPs, and no toxic effects were observed.

conclusionIn conclusion, our results suggest that PLGA-PAMAM@CircOGDH siRNA NPs can be delivered to the ischaemic penumbra region and alleviate neuron apoptosis in MCAO/R mice and in ischaemic neurons; therefore, our study provides a desirable approach for using circRNA-based NPs for the treatment of ischaemic stroke.
