Astragalus Polysaccharides/Chitosan Microspheres for Nasal Delivery: Preparation, Optimization, Characterization, and Pharmacodynamics.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Chitosan (CTS) constitutes a promising area in treatment of nose-related diseases as a nasal drug delivery carrier. Astragalus polysaccharide (APS) significantly attenuates eosinophils and neutrophil-dominant airway inflammation, and it has a potential pharmaceutical application in the treatment of severe asthma. The purpose of this work was to prepare APS/CTS microspheres intended for nasal drug delivery by the spray-drying method. The characteristics of APS/CTS microspheres were evaluated by a scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and
