Effect of itraconazole on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single oral dose of brotizolam.
Trial report in British journal of clinical pharmacology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
aimsTo assess the effect of itraconazole, a potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4, on the single oral dose pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of brotizolam.
methodsIn this randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial 10 healthy male subjects received either itraconazole 200 mg or matched placebo once daily for 4 days. On day 4, a single 0.5 mg dose of brotizolam was administered orally. Plasma concentrations of brotizolam were followed up to 24 h, together with assessment of psychomotor function measured by the digit symbol substitution test (DSST), visual analogue scales and UKU side-effect rating scale.
resultsItraconazole significantly (P < 0.001) decreased the apparent oral clearance (CL/F) (16.47 +/- 4.3 vs 3.91 +/- 2.1), increased the area under the concentration-time curves (AUC) from 0 h to 24 h (28.37 +/- 10.8 vs 68.71 +/- 24.1 ng ml h(-1)), and prolonged the elimination half-life (4.56 +/- 1.4 vs 23.27 +/- 10.3 h) of brotizolam. The AUC(0,24 h) of the DSST (P < 0.001) and the item 'sleepiness' of UKU (P < 0.05) were significantly decreased.
conclusionsItraconazole increases plasma concentrations of brotizolam probably via its inhibitory effect on CYP3A4 brotizolam metabolism.
