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 pH−induced crystallization of weakly basic drugs in the small intestine limits oral bioavailability. In this study, we investigated the solubilization and inhibitory effects on nintedanib in the presence of enteric polymers (HPMCAS LG, HPMCAS MG, Eudragit L100 55, and Eudragit L100). These polymers provided maintenance of supersaturation by increasing the solubility of nintedanib in PBS 6.8 in a concentration-dependent manner, and the improved ranking was as follows: Eudragit L100 > Eudragit L100 55 > HPMCAS MG > HPMCAS LG. After being formulated into amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) by a solvent evaporation method, the drug exhibited an amorphous state. The pH shift dissolution results of polymer-ASDs demonstrated that four polymers could effectively maintain the drug supersaturation even at the lowest ratio of nintedanib and polymer (1:1, w/w). Eudragit L100−ASD could provide both acid resistance and the favorable mitigation of crystallization in GIF. In comparison to the coarse drug, the relative bioavailability of Eudragit L100−ASD was 245% after oral administration in rats, and Tmax was markedly delayed from 2.8 ± 0.4 h to 5.3 ± 2.7 h. Our findings indicate that enteric ASDs are an effective strategy to increase the intestinal absorption of nintedanib by improving physiologically generated supersaturation and subsequent crystallization.
