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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro lung dissolution of amorphous and crystalline powder formulations of rifampicin in polyethylene oxide (PEO) and 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC), and to predict the in vivo plasma concentration-time profiles using the in vitro data.
methodsThe in vitro dissolution and permeation profiles of respirable rifampicin particles were studied using a custom-made dissolution apparatus. Data from the in vitro dissolution test were used to estimate the parameters to be used as the input for the simulation of in vivo plasma concentration-time profiles using STELLA® software. For prediction of in vivo profiles, a one-compartment model either with a first order elimination or with a Michaelis-Menten kinetics-based elimination was used.
resultsCompared to the crystalline formulation, the amorphous formulation showed rapid in vitro dissolution suggesting their possible faster in vivo absorption and higher plasma concentrations of rifampicin following lung delivery. However, the simulations suggested that both powder formulations would result in similar plasma-concentration time profiles of rifampicin.
conclusionsUse of an in vitro dissolution test coupled with a simulation model for prediction of plasma-concentration time profiles of an inhaled drug was demonstrated in this work. These models can also be used in the design of inhaled formulations by controlling their release and dissolution properties to achieve desired lung retention or systemic absorption following delivery to the lungs.
