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

Nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems offer a solution to the pharmacokinetic limitations of voriconazole (VRC), including saturable metabolism and low oral bioavailability. This study developed zein/pectin/hyaluronic acid nanoparticles (ZPHA-VRC NPs) to improve VRC's pharmacokinetics and biodistribution. The nanoparticles had a spherical morphology with an average diameter of 268 nm, a zeta potential of -48.7 mV, and an encapsulation efficiency of 88%. Stability studies confirmed resistance to pH variations and digestive enzymes in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. The in vitro release profile showed a controlled release, with 8% of the VRC released in 2 h and 16% over 24 h. Pharmacokinetic studies in rats demonstrated a 2.8-fold increase in the maximum plasma concentration and a 3-fold improvement in bioavailability compared to free VRC. Biodistribution analysis revealed enhanced VRC accumulation in key organs. These results suggest that ZPHA-VRC NPs effectively improve VRC's therapeutic potential for oral administration.
