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

objectiveIbuprofen arginate is a salt formulation of ibuprofen designed to reach target concentrations rapidly. The primary objective of this study was to compare the 12-h pharmacokinetic profile of S(+)-ibuprofen following administration of single doses of ibuprofen arginate (600 mg) and dexibuprofen (400 mg) in healthy volunteers.

methodsTwenty-four volunteers were recruited into an open-label, randomised, two-period, single-centre study with crossover design.

resultsBoth treatments were well tolerated. Ibuprofen arginate and dexibuprofen showed similar bioavailability for S(+)-ibuprofen. Compared with dexibuprofen, ibuprofen arginate demonstrated a 45% higher maximum concentration (C(max)), and a time to peak concentration (T(max)) 2 h sooner.

conclusionIbuprofen arginate approaches maximum concentrations of S(+)-ibuprofen faster and higher than dexibuprofen.
