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

Purpose: Breviscapine (BRE) possesses excellent cardioprotective efficacy against myocardial infarction (MI). However, its oral application is severely hindered by BCS Class IV properties, including poor solubility and permeability, accompanied by P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated drug efflux and gastrointestinal absorption barriers. Arginine-rich CPPs such as R8 can promote cellular uptake, whereas cationic surface characteristics may restrict particle mobility in gastrointestinal mucus. Conversely, hydrophilic and electro-neutral surfaces favor mucus penetration but may reduce epithelial uptake. This imposes challenges for balancing these two absorption barriers. To solve these problems, we developed surface-engineered nanocrystals with sequential barrier-crossing capability (R8-F127-VES@BRE-NCs). Methods: We engineered multifunctional nanocrystals (R8-F127-VES@BRE-NCs) featuring a sequential barrier-crossing design: nanocrystal technology increases saturation solubility, Pluronic F127 imparts mucus-penetrating capability, R8 peptide facilitates epithelial internalization, and Vitamin E Succinate (VES) may contribute to efflux modulation. Results: Comprehensive characterization and in vitro studies suggested that this integrated design helped address the trade-off between mucus diffusion and epithelial uptake. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed a marked enhancement in oral BRE absorption, with C Conclusion: R8-F127-VES-modified nanocrystals provide a promising strategy for overcoming oral delivery barriers and enhancing the cardioprotective effects of orally administered BRE.
