Evaluation of the Ocular Safety of Hollow Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoparticles with Different Tetrasulfur Bond Content.
Article in International journal of nanomedicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Background: Drug therapy for eye diseases has been limited by multiple protective mechanisms of the eye, which can be improved using well-designed drug delivery systems. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) had been used in many studies as carriers of therapeutic agents for ocular diseases treatment. However, no studies have focused on ocular biosafety. Considering that MSNs containing tetrasulfur bonds have unique advantages and have drawn increasing attention in drug delivery systems, it is necessary to explore the ocular biosafety of tetrasulfur bonds before their widespread application as ophthalmic drug carriers. Methods: In this study, hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) with different tetrasulfur bond contents were prepared and characterized. The ocular biosafety of HMSN-E was evaluated in vitro on the three selected ocular cell lines, including corneal epithelial cells, lens epithelial cells and retinal endothelial cells (HREC), and in vivo by using topical eye drops and intravitreal injections. Results: In cellular experiments, HMSNs caused obvious S content-dependent cytotoxic effect. HMSNs with the highest tetrasulfur bond content (HMSN-E), showed the highest cytotoxicity among all the HMSNs, and HREC was the most vulnerable cell to HMSN-E. It was shown that HMSN-E could react with intracellular GSH to generate H Conclusion: The incorporation of tetrasulfur bonds into HMSN can have toxic effects on ocular tissues. Therefore, when mesoporous silica nanocarriers are designed for ophthalmic pharmaceuticals, the ocular toxicity of the tetrasulfur bonds should be considered.
