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

Despite relentless effort to study glioma treatment, the prognosis for glioma patients remains poor. The main obstacles include the high rate of recurrence and the difficulty of passing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) for therapeutic drugs. Nanomaterials owing to their special physicochemical properties have been used in a wide range of fields thus far. The nanodrug delivery system (NDDS) with the ability of crossing the BBB, targeting glioma site, maintaining drug stability and controlling drug release, has significantly enhanced the anti-tumor therapeutic effect, improving the prognosis of glioma patients. Aligned nanofibers (NFs) are ideal materials to establish in vitro models of glioma microenvironment (GME), enabling the exploration of the mechanism of glioma cell migration and invasion to discover novel therapeutic targets. Moreover, NFs are now widely used in glioma applications such as radiotherapy, phototherapy, thermotherapy and immunotherapy. Despite the absolute dominance of NFs in anti-glioma applications, there are still some problems such as the further optimization of NDDS, and the impact of interactions between nanofibers and the protein corona (PC) on glioma therapy. This paper will shed light on the latest glioma applications of NFs in drug delivery systems and mimicking the tumor microenvironment (TME), and discuss how to further optimize the NDDS and eliminate or utilize the nanomedicine-PC interactions.
