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

A spray-dried powder formulation of 5-azacytidine (5-AZA) recently showed significantly improved tumor reduction and systemic exposure for the potential treatment of metastatic lung cancer. To support clinical use, the target product profile required double the active loading. Here, a series of powders were spray dried to increase 5-AZA loading in the formulation, and process parameters were varied to identify variables controlling powder properties. Formulations were sprayed via in-line mixing, where separate dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and aqueous solutions were mixed immediately upstream of atomization. A core-shell structure was observed matching previous reports of spray-dried l-leucine with sugar from water and ethanol. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study investigating the process and structure of spray-dried l-leucine and trehalose using DMSO and water as processing solvents. Powders with glass transition temperatures (
