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

Cyclodextrin (CD)-hydrogel hybrids have emerged as versatile and multifunctional drug delivery systems, offering enhanced solubility, controlled drug release, and improved bioavailability. By combining the inclusion complexation properties of CDs with the swelling and retention capabilities of hydrogels, these hybrid systems overcome key challenges in conventional drug formulations. This review explores CD composition, hydrogel polymer selection, fabrication techniques, key drug release factors, and real-world therapeutic applications. Additionally, the latest advancements in stimuli-responsive hydrogels, nanogels, and microneedle-based drug delivery are discussed. While CD-hydrogel systems demonstrate significant potential, scalability, regulatory hurdles, and clinical translation remain key challenges. Future research should focus on smart hydrogels, improved drug loading strategies, and enhanced clinical validation to bridge the gap between laboratory innovations and commercial applications.
