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

The purpose of the present work was the development and evaluation of stomach-specific controlled release mucoadhesive drug delivery system prepared by ionotropic gelation of gellan beads, containing acid-soluble drug amoxicillin trihydrate, using 3(2) factorial design with concentration of gellan gum and quantity of drug as variables. The study showed that beads prepared in alkaline cross-linking medium have higher entrapment efficiency than the acidic cross-linking medium. The entrapment efficiency was in the range of 32% to 46% w/w in acidic medium, which increased up to 60% to 90% w/w in alkaline medium. Batches with lowest, medium, and highest drug entrapment were subjected to chitosan coating to form a polyelectrolyte complex film. As polymer concentration increases, entrapment efficiency and particle size increases. Scanning electron microscopy revealed spherical but rough surface due to leaching of drug in acidic cross-linking solution, dense spherical structure in alkaline cross-linking solution, and rough surface of chitosan-coated beads with minor wrinkles. The in vitro drug release up to 7 h in a controlled manner following the Peppas model (r = 0.9998). In vitro and in vivo mucoadhesivity study showed that beads have good mucoadhesivity and more than 85% beads remained adhered to stomach mucosa of albino rat even after 7 h. In vitro growth inhibition study showed complete eradication of Helicobacter pylori. These results indicate that stomach-specific controlled release mucoadhesive system of amoxicillin gellan beads may be useful in H. pylori treatment.
