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

Posaconazole is a potent broad-spectrum azole antifungal agent in clinical development for the treatment of invasive fungal infections. This study evaluated the potential for a pH-dependent pharmacokinetic interaction between posaconazole and an antacid (Mylanta), under fasting and nonfasting conditions. Twelve men completed this randomized, four-period crossover, single-dose study. Subjects received 200 mg of posaconazole following a 10-h fast, with 20 ml of Mylanta and a 10-h fast, with 20 ml of Mylanta and a high-fat breakfast, and with a high-fat breakfast alone. Antacid coadministration had no statistically significant effects on posaconazole bioavailability under fasting or nonfasting conditions. In the fasting state, antacid slightly increased the relative oral bioavailability of posaconazole by 15% (P = 0.296); in the nonfasting state, antacid decreased the relative bioavailability of posaconazole by 12% (P = 0.352). Food increased the relative oral bioavailability of posaconazole by 400% (P = 0.001). In conclusion, the effect of antacid on posaconazole exposure in the fasting or nonfasting state was small and is not considered clinically significant.
