Transdermal ropivacaine delivery via hydrogel-forming microneedles: A pain-free alternative for local anaesthesia.
Article in Drug delivery and translational research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Surgical procedures in critical care settings are often associated with prolonged postoperative pain, which remains a significant clinical challenge. Conventional analgesic strategies typically rely on injection-based delivery, which is invasive, requires trained personnel, and carries risks such as infection and tissue damage. To address these limitations, this study developed a minimally invasive transdermal delivery system for the local anaesthetic ropivacaine (ROP) using hydrogel-forming microneedles (HFMNs) combined with drug reservoir tablets. Two HFMN formulations were prepared using Gantrez
