A Novel Co-Crystal of Bexarotene and Ligustrazine Improves Pharmacokinetics and Tissue Distribution of Bexarotene in SD Rats.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 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
Bexarotene (BEX), a specific retinoic acid X receptor (RXR) agonist granted by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the clinical treatment of T cell lymphoma, has now been found to exert pharmacological effects in the nervous system, with low bioavailability and poor cerebral distribution limiting its application in treatment on neurological disorders. Pharmaceutical co-crystal was a helpful method to improve the bioavailability and tissue distribution of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Here, 2bexarotene-ligustrazine (2BEX-LIG), a novel co-crystal system of BEX and ligustrazine (LIG) of which with BEX is an API, was constructed with satisfactory stability and enhanced solubility. The pharmacokinetics characteristics of BEX were detected, and the results showed that the absolute bioavailability and the cerebral concentration of BEX in rats administrated with 2BEX-LIG were enhanced from 22.89% to 42.86% and increased by 3.4-fold, respectively, compared with those in rats administrated an equivalent of BEX. Hence, our present study indicated that the novel co-crystal of 2BEX-LIG contributed to improving BEX oral bioavailability and cerebral distribution, thereby providing significant advantages for clinical application of brain tumors and other neurological diseases.
