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

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of global mortality, with anticoagulant therapy being the main prevention and treatment strategy. Recombinant hirudin (r-hirudin) is a direct thrombin inhibitor that can potentially prevent thrombosis via subcutaneous (SC) and intravenous (IV) administration, but there is a risk of haemorrhage via SC and IV. Thus, microneedle (MN) provides painless and sanitary alternatives to syringes and oral administration. However, the current technological process for the micro mould is complicated and expensive. The micro mould obtained via three-dimensional (3D) printing is expected to save time and cost, as well as provide a diverse range of MNs. Therefore, we explored a method for MNs array model production based on 3D printing and translate it to micro mould that can be used for fabrication of dissolving MNs patch. The results show that r-hirudin-loaded and hyaluronic acid (HA)-based MNs can achieve transdermal drug delivery and exhibit significant potential in the prevention of thromboembolic disease without bleeding in animal models. These results indicate that based on 3D printing technology, MNs combined with r-hirudin are expected to achieve diverse customizable MNs and thus realize personalized transdermal anticoagulant delivery for minimally invasive and long-term treatment of thrombotic disease.
