Dual Delivery of Fluticasone Propionate and Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis Using a Microemulsion-Based Topical Gel.
Article in ACS omega, 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
The current study investigates the potential for topical delivery of a fluticasone propionate (FP) and levocetirizine dihydrochloride (CTZ)-loaded microemulsion (ME) for the management of atopic dermatitis. Various microemulsion components were chosen based on their solubility and emulsification capabilities, and the ternary phase diagram was constructed. A total of 12 microemulsion formulations were screened for various attributes like vesicle size, polydispersity index, ζ-potential, percent transmittance, density, and pH. The average globule size and ζ-potential of FP and levocetirizine-containing ME were 52.12 nm and -2.98 ζ-potential, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed the spherical nature of the globules. The developed system not only controlled the release of both drugs but also enhanced the efficacy of the drugs on a rodent model. Histopathological studies confirmed the safety of the developed system. The present findings provide evidence for a scalable and simpler approach for the management of atopic dermatitis.
