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

Chemotherapy research highly prioritizes overcoming the multidrug resistance (MDR) in human tumors. Liposomal formulation of fluoxetine, as a fourth generation chemosensitizer, was constructed and characterized for percent entrapment, release profile, morphology, particle size, zeta potential and stability. Liposomes were prepared using different active loading techniques. The influence of different formulation variables such as loading methodology, type of main lipid, addition of PEGylated lipid and cholesterol percentage was evaluated to achieve required entrapment efficiency, in vitro release behavior and stability. The studied parameters had significant effect on physicochemical characteristics of the nanocarriers. High fluoxetine encapsulation efficiency (83% ± 3%) and appropriate particle size (101 ± 12 nm) and zeta potential (-9 ± 2 mv) were achieved for PEGylation liposomes composed of DSPE-PEG, DSPC and cholesterol at respective molar ratio of 5:70:25. An in vitro fluoxetine release of about 20% in 48 h was observed from optimum formulation. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies confirmed homogeneous distribution of particles and spherical shape with smooth surface. The optimum formulation was stable for 9 days when incubated at 37 °C. The results of this study are very encouraging for application of the developed fluoxetine liposomal formulation in drug-resistant tumor models.
