Inhalable nanoparticle-based delivery systems for the treatment of pulmonary infections:
Review in Drug delivery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pulmonary infection is a serious public health challenge with high morbidity and mortality. The employment of antibiotics is the first-line treatment for pulmonary infections, while other novel anti-infection agents, such as antimicrobial peptides, have also been developed due to the emergence of drug resistance. Recently, inhalable nanoparticle-based delivery systems have garnered significant attention for the delivery of anti-infection agents, which possess great advantages like high lung accumulations and precise delivery performances. However, the respiratory physiological structure, mucus and biofilm have been considered as the barriers that nanoparticle drug delivery systems facing, which compromise the therapeutic effects. In this integrative review, recent advances in the inhalable nanoparticle-based delivery system were introduced. In addition, we focused on the biological characteristics of these barriers and discussed effective strategies to overcome the obstacles, including precise deposition in the lower respiratory tract infection site, effective penetration of mucus and breaking of the biofilm barrier. To sum up, this review aimed to deepen the understanding of the fate of anti-infective nanoformulations in pulmonary delivery and find effective strategies to address the barriers, thus providing new insights for the development of pulmonary delivery systems against pulmonary infections.
