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

Apremilast (APR) is an anti-inflammatory drug commonly used in the treatment of psoriasis. In efforts to enhance its solubility, several cocrystals with similar structural features have been developed. This study investigates the cocrystallization of APR with four phenolic-type coformers: phenol, catechol, pyrogallol, and hydroxyquinol. These coformers differ in the number and position of their hydroxyl groups, with their melting points varying by as much as 100 °C. Four novel cocrystal forms were synthesized, purified, and characterized using X-Ray diffraction and thermal analysis techniques. Surprisingly, the resulting cocrystals exhibited minimal differences in their melting points. The molecular packing of APR appears to limit the network-forming potential of the hydroxyl groups, a conclusion supported by the solved crystal structures, Hirshfeld surface analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results.
