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

Cocrystallization has emerged as an effective strategy to improve the physicochemical and pharmaceutical properties of bioactive compounds. Here, we prepared novel cocrystals of quercetin (Que) and nutraceutical coformers, i.e., vitamin B6, inositol and l-carnitine, by using slurry methods. The cocrystals were characterized using orthogonal techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), DSC, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), providing complementary insights into the morphology, crystallinity, thermal behavior, and molecular interactions and confirming the formation of distinct solid phases. Dissolution studies revealed markedly enhanced solubility and release rates up to 1.2-2.5-fold higher within the first hour compared to unmodified quercetin. In cell-based assays, all cocrystals exhibited improved cytotoxicity against cervical and lung cancer cells via apoptotic induction and effective ROS reduction while maintaining minimal toxicity toward normal cells. Among all cocrystals, the cocrystal between quercetin and l-carnitine (
