Green Solid Lipid Nanoparticles by Fatty Acid Coacervation: An Innovative Nasal Delivery Tool for Drugs Targeting Cerebrovascular and Neurological Diseases.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cerebrovascular and neurological diseases are characterized by neuroinflammation, which alters the neurovascular unit, whose interaction with the choroid plexus is critical for maintaining brain homeostasis and producing cerebrospinal fluid. Dysfunctions in such process can lead to conditions such as idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, a common disease in older adults. Potential pharmacological treatments, based upon intranasal administration, are worthy of investigation because they might improve symptoms and avoid surgery by overcoming the blood-brain barrier and avoiding hepatic metabolism. Nasal lipid nanocarriers, such as solid lipid nanoparticles, may increase the nasal retention and permeation of drugs. To this aim, green solid lipid nanoparticles, obtained by coacervation from natural soaps, are promising vehicles due to their specific lipid matrix composition and the unsaponifiable fraction, endowed with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and thus suitable for restoring the neurovascular unit function. In this experimental work, such green solid lipid nanoparticles, fully characterized from a physico-chemical standpoint, were loaded with a drug combination suitable for reverting hydrocephalus symptoms, allowing us to obtain a non-toxic formulation, a reduction in the production of the cerebrospinal fluid in vitro, and a vasoprotective effect on an isolated vessel model. The pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of fluorescently labelled nanoparticles were also tested in animal models.
