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

purposeDrug particle physical properties are critical for the efficiency of a drug delivered to the lung. The purpose of this study was to produce ultrafine sumatriptan succinate particles for inhalation.

methodsSumatriptan succinate particles were produced via reactive precipitation without any surfactants. Several low toxic organic solvents such as acetone, isopropanol, and tetrahydrofuran were investigated as the reaction medium. And the dry powder was obtained via spray drying. FT-IR, HPLC, SEM and XRD were exploited to characterize the physicochemical properties of the ultrafine sumatriptan succinate dry powder. The aerosol performance of the powder was evaluated using an Aeroliser connected to a multi stage liquid impinger operating at 60 l/min.

resultsThe mean particle size of the ultrafine sumatriptan succinate particles obtained under optimum conditions was in the range of 630-679 nm and consequently they were in the respirable range. The spray-dried powder whose fine particle fraction was increased up to 50.6 +/- 8.2% showed good aerosol performance whereas the vacuum-dried powder was approximate 18.2 +/- 3.0%.

conclusionsGood aerosol performance ultrafine sumatriptan succinate particles could be produced by reactive precipitation without any additives followed by spray drying at the optimum parameters.
