Investigation of Physico-Chemical Stability and Aerodynamic Properties of Novel "Nano-in-Micro" Structured Dry Powder Inhaler System.
Article in Micromachines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Pulmonary drug transport has numerous benefits. Large surface areas for absorption and limited drug degradation of the gastrointestinal system are provided through the respiratory tract. The administration is painless and easy for the patient. Due to their better stability when compared to liquid formulations, powders have gained popularity among pulmonary formulations. In the pharmaceutical sector, quality assurance and product stability have drawn a lot of attention. Due to this, it was decided to perform a long-term stability study on a previously developed, nanosized dry powder inhaler (DPI) formulation that contained meloxicam. Wet milling was implemented to reduce the particle size, and nano spray-drying was used to produce the extra-fine inhalable particles. The particle diameter was determined using dynamic light scattering and laser diffraction. Scanning electron microscopy was utilized to describe the morphology. X-ray powder diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry were applied to determine the crystallinity. In an artificial lung medium, the in vitro dissolution was studied. The Andersen Cascade Impactor was used to investigate the in vitro aerodynamic characteristics. The stability test results demonstrated that the DPI formulation maintained its essential qualities after 6 and 12 months of storage. Consequently, the product might be promising for further studies and development.
