Triggered release of ciprofloxacin from nanostructured agglomerated vesicles.
Article in International journal of nanomedicine, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Nanostructured agglomerated vesicles encapsulating ciprofloxacin were evaluated for modulated delivery from the lungs in a healthy rabbit model. An aliphatic disulfide crosslinker, cleavable by cysteine was used to form cross-links between nanosized liposomes to form the agglomerates. The blood levels of drug after pulmonary instillation of free ciprofloxacin, liposomal ciprofloxacin, and the agglomerated liposomes encapsulating ciprofloxacin were evaluated. The liposomes and agglomerated vesicles showed extended release of drug into the blood over 24 hours, while the free ciprofloxacin did not. The agglomerates also allowed modulation of the drug release rate upon the introduction of cysteine into the lungs post-drug instillation; the cysteine-cleavable agglomerates accelerated their drug release rate, indicated by an increased level of drug in the blood. This technology holds promise for the post-administration modulation of antibiotic release, for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary and systemic infections.
