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

The hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) low solubility and permeability give rise to limited and variable bioavailability; its low stability makes it difficult to develop stable aqueous liquid formulations; its low dose makes the achievement of a homogeneous drug distribution very difficult. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a strategy based on the development of nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) as an innovative oral pediatric formulation of HCT with improved therapeutic efficacy. The performance of various synthetic and natural liquid lipids was examined and two different preparation methods were employed, i.e. homogenization-ultrasonication (HU) and microemulsion (ME), in order to evaluate their influence on the NLC properties in terms of size, polydispersity index, ζ-potential, entrapment efficiency, gastric stability, and drug release properties. Precirol®ATO5 was used as solid lipid and Tween
