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

purposeOral therapy with raloxifene (RXF), an amphiphobic drug for remedy of the postmenopausal osteoporosis and estrogen-dependent breast cancer, is less effective due to its poor bioavailability (2% or so). This work aimed to devise mesoporous carbon nanospheres (MCNs) for oral delivery of RXF and evaluate their performance in bioavailability enhancement and lymphatic transport.

methodsGlucose-based MCNs were fabricated by hydrothermal reaction followed by high-temperature activation. RXF-loaded MCNs (RXF-MCNs) were prepared by solvent-diffusion/high-pressure homogenization and stabilized by phospholipid. RXF-MCNs were fully characterized by particle size, morphology, in vitro drug release and metabolism, in vivo pharmacokinetics and lymphatic transport, and ex vivo fluorescent imaging.

resultsThe prepared RXF-MCNs were 230 nm around in particle size, showing high entrapment efficiency (95.35%) and satisfactory physical stability. The oral bioavailability of RXF was enhanced by 2.07 folds through MCNs compared with RXF suspensions in rats. It was shown that reduced intestinal metabolism due to entrapment into MCNs, active transcellular uptake and increased lymphatic transport were responsible for enhanced bioavailability as a result of transport improvement.

conclusionsThe results suggest that MCNs are suitable nanocarriers for oral delivery of poorly bioavailable RXF.
