Exploring the potential of quercetin/aspirin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles coated with Eudragit L100 in the treatment of induced-colorectal cancer in rats.

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
Growing evidence suggests quercetin and aspirin may have anticancer properties, notably in the case of colorectal cancer. The goal of this study was to create Pluronic F127 and polyethylene glycol4000 solid dispersion-loaded chitosan nanoparticles for colonic quercetin and aspirin delivery. In 1:1 polymeric stoichiometric ratio, solubility and complex formation were verified. Solid dispersion-loaded chitosan nanoparticles with a diameter of 244.45 ± 8.5 nm, a surface charge of 34.1 ± 3.3 mV, and encapsulation effectiveness of 76.3 ± 4.3% were generated under ideal conditions. In some cases, coating with Eudragit L100 resulted in a decrease in zeta potential and an increase in particle size. The coated formulation released the actives in a pH-dependent manner, considering their physicochemical features. Surprisingly, when compared to the actives' suspension and uncoated formulation, the coated formulation had greater anti-inflammatory efficacy, with a substantial reduction of PGE2 and IL-8 production in colonic tissues (16.9 ± 7.9 ng/g tissue and 134.9 ± 10.1 pg/g tissue, respectively). It also reversed most of the dimethyl hydrazine-induced histological alterations in the colon. It also demonstrated a greater reduction in TNF expression in colonic tissues. As a result, Eudragit L100-coated QT/AS-loaded chitosan nanoparticles are suggested to provide a potential platform for colonic delivery of quercetin and aspirin.
