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 this investigation was to design and develop gastroretentive dosage form for cefuroxime axetil using floating tablet approach with various grades of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose. Cefuroxime axetil is known to have low bioavailability, short half-life and is absorbed largely from upper GIT. Sodium bicarbonate was used in the dosage form as a source of carbon-di-oxide to maintain buoyancy. In vitro dissolution study results indicated non-Fickian diffusion controlled drug release mechanism and was best fitted into Korsmeyer-Peppas equation. In vivo radiographic studies conducted in five healthy human volunteers for optimized formulation indicated over 6 h retention of tablet in the stomach region. Reproducible physical parameters indicated that the current formulation could be easily scaled-up.
