Diffusive drug delivery in the brain extracellular space from a cellular scale microtube.
Article in MRS communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 effectiveness of state-of-the-art systemic treatments for neurological disorders is hampered not only by the difficulty in crossing the blood brain barrier but also off-target drug interactions. In this study, a delivery method is simulated for a novel U-shaped microtube locally infusing drugs directly into the extracellular space of the brain and relying on diffusion as a transport mechanism. The influence of flow rate, drug properties and device geometry are investigated. It is anticipated that these findings will accelerate progress on both developmental and applied drug delivery and materials research.
