Impact of Processing Methods on the Physico-chemical Properties of Posaconazole Amorphous Solid Dispersions.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND & PURPOSE: Different methods have been exploited to generate amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) of poorly water-soluble drugs. However, the impact of processing methods on drug stability and dissolution hasn't been studied extensively. The purpose of the current study is to investigate the impact of the two common ASD processing methods, hot-melt extrusion (HME) and spray drying, on the chemical/physical stability and supersaturation of Posaconazole (Posa) based ASDs. METHODS &
resultsASDs with 25% drug loading in hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetate succinate were prepared using HME, and two types of spray dryers, a Procept Sprayer (ASD-Procept) and a Nano Sprayer (ASD-Nano). The relative physical stability of these ASDs upon exposure to heat and crystalline API seeding followed the order: ASD-Nano > ASD-Procept ≈HME. ASD-Procept and ASD-Nano showed similar chemical stability, slightly less stable than HME under 40°C/75%RH. All three ASDs demonstrated similar supersaturation induction times, and de-supersaturation kinetics with or without crystalline seeds.
conclusionsPosa ASDs prepared via spray drying were chemically less stable compared with HME, which can be attributed to their smaller particle size and hollow structure allowing oxygen penetration. For ASD-Procept and HME, the detailed phase changes involving recrystallization of amorphous Posa and a solid-solid phase transition from Posa Form I to Form Ia during the seed-induced studies were proposed. Similar dissolution and supersaturation-precipitation kinetics of three Posa ASDs indicated that any residual nanocrystals in the bulk ASDs were not enough to induce crystallization to differentiate ASDs made by three processing methods.
