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

The goal of this study was to develop atorvastatin (ATN) calcium biloaded, i.e., immediate release (IR) and sustained release (SR) capsules that would promote the quick onset of action and a better dissolution profile on both the IR and SR aspects. The IR granules were prepared by the wet granulation method, and an aqueous solubility study proved that the IR granules released the ATN within 25 min compared to the pure drug due to the addition of PEG and super disintegrants such as croscarmellose (CC) and crospovidone (CP). The sustained release nanoparticles (SR-NPs) were synthesized using a solvent evaporation technique and an optimal combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers. The addition of a hydrophobic polymer to a hydrophilic polymer delays drug release, resulting in a sustained and controlled release lasting up to 12 hours. The drug release of ATN from SR nanoparticles followed the Higuchi and Korsmeyer-Peppas models and had first-order kinetics (
