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
backgroundNanotechnology-based drug delivery systems have been widely used for oral and systemic dosage forms delivery depending on the mucoadhesive interaction, and keratin has been applied for biomedical applications and drug delivery. However, few reports have focused on the keratin-based mucoadhesive drug delivery system and their mechanisms of mucoadhesion. Thus, the mucoadhesion controlled kerateine (reduced keratin, KTN)/keratose (oxidized keratin, KOS) composite nanoparticles were prepared via adjusting the proportion of KTN and KOS to achieve controlled gastric mucoadhesion and drug release based on their different mucoadhesive abilities and pH-sensitive properties. Furthermore, the mechanisms of mucoadhesion for KTN and KOS were also investigated in the present study.
resultsThe composite keratin nanoparticles (KNPs) with different mass ratio of KTN to KOS, including 100/0 (KNP-1), 75/25 (KNP-2), 50/50 (KNP-3), and 25/75 (KNP-4), displayed different drug release rates and gastric mucoadhesion capacities, and then altered the drug pharmacokinetic performances. The stronger mucoadhesive ability of nanoparticle could supply longer gastric retention time, indicating that KTN displayed a stronger mucoadhesion than that of KOS. Furthermore, the mechanisms of mucoadhesion for KTN and KOS at different pH conditions were also investigated. The binding between KTN and porcine gastric mucin (PGM) is dominated by electrostatic attractions and hydrogen bondings at pH 4.5, and disulfide bonds also plays a key role in the interaction at pH 7.4. While, the main mechanisms of KOS and PGM interactions are hydrogen bondings and hydrophobic interactions in pH 7.4 condition and were hydrogen bondings at pH 4.5.
conclusionsThe resulting knowledge offer an efficient strategy to control the gastric mucoadhesion and drug release of nano drug delivery systems, and the elaboration of mucoadhesive mechanism of keratins will enable the rational design of nanocarriers for specific mucoadhesive drug delivery.
