A Novel Forming Method of Traditional Chinese Medicine Dispersible Tablets to Achieve Rapid Disintegration Based on the Powder Modification Principle.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Slow disintegration and poor solubility are common problems facing the dispersible tablets of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In an early study, the research group found that co-grinding of extracts and silica could achieve a rapid disintegration effect, though the mechanism of this effect was not thoroughly elucidated. In this study, Yuanhu Zhitong dispersible tablets (YZDT) were selected as a model drug to explore the mechanism of rapid disintegration and dissolution. First, eight types of silica were used to prepare modified YZDT, and their disintegration time and amount of dissolution within 5 min were measured. Next, the powder properties of eight types of silica were investigated. By correlation analysis, it was found that the average pore size and density of silica were closely related to the effect of promoting disintegration. It was determined that the co-grinding of silica and extracts provided high porosity for the raw material drug, and its abundant narrow channels provided a strong static pressure for water penetration to achieve a rapid disintegration effect. Meanwhile, it was found that the addition of silica had a certain effect on promoting dissolution. Our results provide a highly operational approach for improving the disintegration and dissolution of TCM dispersible tablets. Meanwhile, this approach is also beneficial for establishing a high-quality evaluation index for silica.
