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

Hot melt coating (HMC) of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powder with lipid-based excipients is an innovative method for manufacturing patient-convenient dosage forms. However, drug release instability is still its main industrial challenge. The correlation between the unstable pharmaceutical product performance with the solid-state alteration of lipids is currently well-investigated. The remaining problem is the inconsistent release alteration of different APIs coated with the same lipid after storage, such as faster release in some cases and slower release in others. The interaction between API surface and lipid-based coating and its alteration during storage were investigated in this work. The surface properties of five different APIs and the coating composition of tripalmitin and polysorbate 65 were screened via Washburn and pendant drop methods, respectively. Metformin hydrochloride and hydrochlorothiazide particles were each coated with the coating composition. The water sorption alteration of coated particles and the crystal growth of tripalmitin in the coating after storage were measured via tensiometry and X-ray diffraction. The cleavage work necessary to overcome the adhesion of coating composition on the core surface was calculated for each API. The accelerated release of the polar core (metformin) after storage was correlated with a low cleavage work and a distinctive phase separation. In contrast, a decelerated release of the hydrophobic core (hydrochlorothiazide) was favored by the crystal growth of the lipid-based coating. The gained knowledge can be used to design the product stability during the formulation development.
