In Vitro and In Vivo Studies of a Verapamil-Containing Gastroretentive Solid Foam Capsule.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Gastroretentive systems may overcome problems associated with incomplete drug absorption by localized release of the API in the stomach. Low-density drug delivery systems can float in the gastric content and improve the bioavailability of small molecules. The current publication presents verapamil-HCl-containing solid foam prepared by continuous manufacturing. Production runs were validated, and the foam structure was characterized by micro-CT scans and SEM. Dissolution properties, texture changes during dissolution, and floating forces were analyzed. An optimized formulation was chosen and given orally to Beagle dogs to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of the solid foam capsules. As a result, a 12.5 m/m% stearic acid content was found to be the most effective to reduce the apparent density of capsules. Drug release can be described by the first-order model, where 70% of verapamil dissolved after 10 h from the optimized formulation. The texture analysis proved that the structures of the solid foams are resistant. Additionally, the floating forces of the samples remained constant during their dissolution in acidic media. An in vivo study confirmed the prolonged release of the API, and gastroscopic images verified the retention of the capsule in the stomach.
