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

As a low-risk, low-cost, but high-reward route, cocrystallization of drugs with appropriate coformers is applied to improve the physiochemical and biopharmaceutical properties of drugs. Currently, most researchers concentrate their efforts on the preparation, characterization, and improvement of physicochemical properties of pharmaceutical cocrystals. On the contrary, the biological study of pharmaceutical cocrystals has not attracted wide attention of researchers. In this review, we have focused on recent advances reporting the biological studies of pharmaceutical cocrystals. The covered areas consist of the solubility and permeability, the pharmacokinetics study, metabolism and distribution, pharmacodynamics research, and the toxicological evaluation of pharmaceutical cocrystals. Besides, discussions have been made on the in vivo-in vitro correlations for pharmaceutical cocrystals, the enhancement of efficiency and reduction of toxicity for pharmaceutical cocrystals, and the interaction between APIs and coformers in pharmaceutical cocrystals and marketed pharmaceutical cocrystals as well as their biological studies. At the same time, some problems such as the amount of animal samples, the number and distribution of blood sampling points, investigation on the pharmacokinetics of physical mixtures containing APIs and coformers, and the consideration of species differences should be taken into account. Although pharmaceutical cocrystals face some challenges in clarifying the characteristics of metabolism and distribution, revealing potential pharmacological mechanism, and evaluating safety, cocrystal engineering is still considered a green and promising approach to developing valuable new drugs.
