Non-invasive evaluation of transdermal drug delivery using 3-D transient triplet differential (TTD) photoacoustic imaging.
Article in Photoacoustics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) is less invasive and avoids first-pass metabolism, making it an attractive method for treating various diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. However, current methods for evaluating TDD systems lack in vivo descriptions of drug distribution in the skin. In this study, we demonstrate the capability of the Transient Triplet Differential (TTD) method, a non-invasive and background-free photoacoustic imaging technique, for accurately mapping drug distribution and evaluating different TDD systems. Our findings show that the TTD method can provide high sensitivity and specificity for targeted drug extraction and visualize 3D drug distribution in the skin. Furthermore, in vivo experiments confirmed the potential of the TTD method in evaluating the clinical performance of TDD. It's predictable that the TTD method can be a reliable and non-invasive approach for evaluating TDD systems and offer valuable insights into TDD research and development.
