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 current study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of a novel nano-lipoidal eye drop formulation of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for the topical treatment of uveitis. The triamcinolone acetonide-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (cTA-NLC) were developed by employing 'hot microemulsion method' using biocompatible lipids, which exhibited a sustained release nature and enhanced efficacy when evaluated in vitro. The in vivo efficacy of this developed formulation was tested on Wistar rats, and a single-dose pharmacokinetic study was conducted in rabbits. The eyes of animals were examined for any signs of inflammation using the 'Slit-lamp microscopic' method. The aqueous humor collected from the sacrificed rats was tested for total protein count and cell count. The total protein count was determined using BSA assay method, while the total cell count was determined by Neubaur's hemocytometer method. The results showed that the cTA-NLC formulation had negligible signs of inflammation, with a clinical score of uveitis 0.82 ± 0.166, which is much less than control/untreated (3.80 ± 0.3) and free drug suspension (2.66 ± 0.405). The total cell count was also found to be significantly low for cTA-NLC (8.73 ± 1.79 × 10
