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

In this study, gliclazide-loaded cubosomal particles were prepared for improving the oral bioavailability and antidiabetic activity of gliclazide. Four formulations of gliclazide-loaded cubosomal nanoparticles dispersions were prepared by the emulsification method using four different concentrations of glyceryl monooleate (GMO) and poloxamer 407 (P407) as the stabilizer. The prepared formulations were in vitro and in vivo evaluated. In vitro, the prepared gliclazide-loaded cubosomal dispersions exhibited disaggregated regular poly-angular particles with a nanometer-sized particle range from 220.60 ± 1.39 to 234.00 ± 2.90 nm and entrapped 73.84 ± 3.03 to 88.81 ± 0.94 of gliclazide. In vitro gliclazide release from cubosomal nanoparticles revealed an initially higher drug release during the first 2 h in acidic pH medium; subsequently, a comparatively higher drug release in alkaline medium relative to gliclazide suspension was observed. An in vivo absorption study in rats revealed a two-fold increase in the bioavailability of gliclazide cubosomal formulation relative to plain gliclazide suspension. Moreover, the study of in vivo hypoglycemic activity indicated that a higher percentage reduction in glucose level was observed after the administration of gliclazide cubosomal nanoparticles to rats. In conclusion, gliclazide-loaded cubosomal nanoparticles could be a promising delivery system for improving the oral absorption and antidiabetic activity of gliclazide.
