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

backgroundFungal ocular infections can cause serious consequences, despite their low incidence. It has been reported that Posaconazole (PSC) is used in the treatment of fungal infections in different ocular tissues by diluting the oral suspension, and successful results were obtained despite low ocular permeation. Therefore, we optimized PSC-loaded ocular micelles and demonstrated that the permeation/penetration of PSC in ocular tissues was enhanced.

methodsThe micellar-based in situ gels based on the QbD approach to increase the ocular bioavailability of PSC were developed. Different ratios of Poloxamer 407 and Poloxamer 188 were chosen as CMAs. T

resultsOptimized in situ gel shows viscoelastic property and becomes gel form at physiological temperatures even when diluted with the tear film. In addition, it has been shown that the formulation had high anti-fungal activity and did not have any ocular toxicity.

conclusionsIn our previous studies, PSC-loaded ocular micelles were developed and optimized for the first time in the literature. With this study, the in situ gels of PSC for ocular application were developed and optimized for the first time. The optimized micellar-based in situ gel is a promising drug delivery system that may increase the ocular permeation and bioavailability of PSC.
