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

Transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) represent a non-invasive approach to achieve controlled drug release through the skin barrier, offering stable plasma concentrations while avoiding gastrointestinal and hepatic metabolism. However, the skin barrier poses physical challenges, making it difficult for most drugs to penetrate deep tissues using TDDS. This review systematically summarizes the research progress in nanocarrier design, physical technology application, and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven TDDS optimization design aimed at overcoming the key problem of skin barrier penetration. An in-depth analysis of nanocarriers, such as soft vesicles, nanoemulsions, rigid nanoparticles, and physically assisted enhancement technologies, and AI-driven research on skin penetration enhancement in TDDS was summarized. An integrated technical framework demonstrates how microneedle arrays, iontophoresis, electroporation, and photoporation synergize with nanoparticles to achieve spatiotemporally controlled transdermal drug delivery. Additionally, the review emphasizes the clinical application potential of these integrated technologies and offers a comprehensive, multidimensional perspective to advance innovation in TDDS.
