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 selection of an appropriate vehicle in a semi-solid topical product is of utmost importance since the vehicle composition and microstructure can potentially cause changes in drug-vehicle or vehicle-skin interactions and affect drug release and subsequent permeation into and across skin. Hence, the aim of this study was to evaluate different semi-solid formulations containing diclofenac sodium for the physicochemical and structural performance of excipients used and various physiological factors governing permeation of drugs applied to skin. The formulations (emulsion, emulgel, gel, and ointment) were prepared using conventional excipients and were found to be homogenous and stable. Rheological analysis demonstrated characteristic shear-thinning and viscoelastic behavior of formulations. The mean release rate of the gel formulation (380.42 ± 3.05 µg/cm
