Valvejet Technology for the Production of a Personalised Fixed Dose Combination of Ramipril and Glimepiride: an Investigative Study on the Stability of Ramipril.

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
purposeTo use valvejet technology for printing a fixed dose combination of ramipril and glimepiride, and to investigate the stability profile of ramipril, which is susceptible to a range of processing and storage conditions.
methodsInks of ramipril and glimepiride were formulated and printed on to HPMC film and the films were evaluated for the chemical and solid-state integrity of the APIs using HPLC and XRPD. The stability of the APIs in the inks and in the printed samples was investigated using Raman and NMR techniques.
resultsThe printed samples demonstrated excellent precision and accuracy in the doses of APIs deposited. Both drugs were chemically intact in the freshly printed samples and ramipril was found to be in its amorphous form. Ramipril in the printed samples has transformed into ramipril diketopiperazine when stored at 40°C with 75% RH, but remained stable when stored in a desiccator. Results from the stability study of ramipril ink show that the API has undergone degradation when stored both at room temperature and at 40°C but remained stable when stored in a refrigerator.
conclusionAn FDC of ramipril and glimepiride was successfully printed using valvejet technology. The significance of inkjet printing in producing amorphous dosage forms from solution based inks and personalised dosage forms of drugs susceptible to processing conditions was demonstrated using ramipril. This study illustrates the significance of examining the stability of the APIs in the inks and the importance of appropriate storing of both the inks and printed samples.
