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

Plasma and skin blister fluid concentrations of tinidazole following a single oral dose of 2 g drug, and after multiple doses of 0.25 g every 12 h, were determined. Skin blisters were produced by direct application of 0.25% cantharidin ointment to the skin. The maximum concentration in plasma of about 36 mg.l-1 was observed after about 2 h, whereas in skin blister fluid the peak occurred after about 6 h and was 30 mg.l-1. The half-life in plasma was slightly shorter than in blister fluid at 17 and 19 h, respectively, but the difference was not significant. The penetration of tinidazole into cantharidin-induced skin blister fluid, defined according to Wise as the ratio of the AUCs in blister fluid and plasma was 1.00. During routine treatment with tinidazole (0.25 g every 12 h), the concentrations in plasma and blister fluid collected before and 3 h after the morning dose exceeded the minimal inhibitory concentrations for susceptible pathogens. The results provide a pharmacokinetic basis for the proven efficacy of tinidazole in the treatment of protozoal and anaerobic infections.
