A novel controlled release tetrandrine-loaded PDLLA film: evaluation of drug release and anti-adhesion effects in vitro and in vivo.

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
To investigate the drug release and anti-adhesion effects of a TET (tetrandrine)-loaded PDLLA (poly-DL-lactide) film. Detection of TET release in vitro was carried out by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) every 2 days following immersion of the tetrandrine-loaded PDLLA film in simulated body fluid until the TET content of the eluate could not be detected. For the in vivo test, TET-loaded PDLLA films were implanted into animal laminectomy models and positive and blank control groups were also set up. Postoperative serum tests, and macroscopic and histological analyses at 1, 4, 8, and 12 weeks, were used to assess the effects of the film. Statistical analyses were performed by one-way ANOVA. The drug release of the tetrandrine-loaded PDLLA film in vitro showed two phases with a second release peak. Ultimately, the duration of continuous delivery was up to 66 days and the cumulative delivery rate was up to 93.18%. Scores for the proliferation of epidural scars or adhesion of the dura mater in the test group were much lower than those for the two control groups. Histological analysis revealed the test group had fewer inflammatory cells and fibroblasts, as well as fewer extracellular collagen fibers, and a lower histology score than those of the two control groups at all time points. Tetrandrine-loaded PDLLA film is a novel controlled drug release and anti-adhesion material in vitro and in vivo.
