Engineering a macromolecular JAK inhibitor for treating acute inflammation and endotoxaemia.
Article in Nature biomedical engineering, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Uncontrolled and sustained inflammation is inextricably associated with the pathogenesis of numerous diseases. However, there is still demand for effective and safe anti-inflammatory therapies. Here we report a potent anti-inflammatory macromolecular therapy named HPL, created by conjugating polyethylene glycol and luminol onto a multivalent and hydrolysable cyclic structure. Leveraging its amphiphilic nature, HPL can spontaneously self-assemble into micelles capable of targeting inflamed tissues and localizing in inflammatory cells. In mice with acute lung, kidney and liver injuries, as well as endotoxaemia, HPL shows anti-inflammatory effects that rivals or surpasses those of two commonly used anti-inflammatory drugs. HPL micelles can act as bioactive and inflammation-responsive carriers for site-specific delivery to release anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanistically, HPL exerts its anti-inflammatory activity mainly by inhibiting the IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 signalling pathway. HPL shows favourable safety profiles in mice at doses at least 5-fold higher than those used in therapeutic studies. These findings suggest that HPL holds great promise as a highly potent, cost-effective and safe JAK2 inhibitor for treating various diseases associated with inflammation.
