Nanocarrier for poorly water-soluble anticancer drugs--barriers of translation and solutions.
Review in AAPS PharmSciTech, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 74 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
Many existing chemotherapeutic drugs, repurposed drugs and newly developed small-molecule anticancer compounds have high lipophilicity and low water-solubility. Currently, these poorly water-soluble anticancer drugs (PWSAD) are generally solubilized using high concentrations of surfactants and co-solvents, which frequently lead to adverse side effects. In recent years, researchers have been actively exploring the use of nanotechnology as an alternative to the solvent-based drug solubilization approach. Several classes of nanocarrier systems (lipid-based, polymer-based and albumin-based) are widely studied for encapsulation and delivery of the existing and new PWSAD. These nanocarriers were also shown to offer several additional advantages such as enhanced tumour accumulation, reduced systemic toxicity and improved therapeutic effectiveness. In this article, the recent nanotechnological advances in PWSAD delivery will be reviewed. The barriers commonly encountered in the development of PWSAD nanoformulations (e.g. formulation issues and nanotoxicity issues) and the strategies to overcome these barriers will also be discussed. It is our goal to provide the pharmaceutical scientists and clinicians with more in-depth information about the nanodelivery approach, thus, more efficacious and safe PWSAD nanoformulations can be developed with improved translational success.
