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 bioavailability of quercetin, a natural compound, is hindered by low solubility, limited absorption, and restricted systemic availability. Therefore, encapsulating it in biocompatible nanoparticles presents a promising solution. This study aimed to target prostate cancer stem cells (CSCs) overexpressing CD44+ receptors as well as cancer cells, employing quercetin-loaded hyaluronic acid-modified nanoliposomes (LP-Quer-HA). Synthesized via a green ethanol injection method, these nanoliposomes had an average diameter of 134 nm and an impressive loading efficiency of 96.9%. Human prostate cancer cells were treated with either 10 μM of free quercetin or the same concentration delivered by LP-Quer-HA for 72 hours. Free quercetin reduced androgen-resistant PC3 cell viability by 16%, while LP-Quer-HA significantly increased cell death to 60%. It induced apoptosis, upregulating cytochrome
