Polymeric implants for the delivery of green tea polyphenols.
Article in Journal of pharmaceutical sciences, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Polymeric implants (millirods) have been tested for local delivery of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer treatment. Modeling of drug release profiles is critical as it may provide theoretical insights on rational implant design. In this study, a biodegradable poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) polymeric implant delivery system was tested to deliver green tea polyphenols (GTPs), both in vitro and in vivo. Factors including polymer compositions, supplements, drug loads, and surface area of implants were investigated. Our data showed that GTPs were released from PCL implants continuously for long durations, and drug load was the main determining factor of GTPs release. Furthermore, rates of in vitro release and in vivo release in the rat model followed similar kinetics for up to 16 months. A mathematical model was deduced and discussed. GTP implants have the potential to be used systemically and locally at the tumor site as an alternative strategy.
