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

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a promising nanocarrier for drug delivery due to its tunable porosity, biocompatibility, and pH sensitivity. In this study, a one-pot room-temperature synthesis strategy was developed to encapsulate polydatin (PD) within ZIF-8 (PD@ZIF-8), followed by chitosan (CS) coating (PD@ZIF-8/CS) for improved stability and sustained release of this drug delivery system. FTIR, UV-vis, XRD, DLS and TGA characterization confirmed the successful synthesis of PD@ZIF-8/CS. SEM micrographs revealed the rhombic dodecahedral particles (85.2 nm) of ZIF-8, slightly roughened polyhedral particles (115.4 nm) of PD@ZIF-8 and aggregated particles (294.8 nm) of PD@ZIF-8/CS, confirming CS shell formation. DLS analysis showed hydrodynamic diameters of 99.3 ± 2.1 nm, 112.8 ± 3.4 nm, and 251.7 ± 4.6 nm for ZIF-8, PD@ZIF-8 and PD@ZIF-8/CS, respectively, with the zeta potential shifting from +12.6 to -3.9 mV after CS coating. The PD@ZIF-8 system achieved an outstanding drug-loading efficiency (91.34%) and exhibited pH-dependent release, reaching 92.5% release at pH 5.0 and 37 °C within 72 h, while the CS coating reduced the burst release by ∼35% and prolonged
