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

background and purposePatients commonly take complementary medicines in conjunction with conventional drugs without clear evidence of safety or the risk of herb-drug interactions. The aim of this study was to assess potential pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) interactions between St John's wort and gliclazide in healthy subjects with different cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) genotypes. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: A crossover controlled study was conducted in 21 healthy subjects. Each received gliclazide (80 mg) either alone or during 15 days treatment with St John's wort. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-infinity)), apparent clearance (CL/F) and elimination half-life (t 1/2) of gliclazide and incremental changes in glucose and insulin AUC(0-4) were compared. CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles were identified using PCR followed by restriction enzyme digestion analysis. KEY

resultsSt John's wort significantly altered gliclazide pharmacokinetics in all except for four healthy subjects. The mean ratio and 90% confidence interval (CI) of gliclazide AUC(0-infinity) and CL/F were 0.67 (0.55-0.81) and 1.50 (1.24-1.81), respectively, after St John's wort treatment. St John's wort decreased gliclazide t (1/2), with mean ratio and 90% CI of 0.85 (0.74-0.93). There were no significant changes in glucose or insulin AUC(0-4) after St John's wort treatment and no significant differences according to CYP2C9 genotype. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Treatment with St John's wort significantly increases the apparent clearance of gliclazide which is independent of CYP2C9 genotype. People with diabetes receiving this combination should be closely monitored to evaluate possible signs of reduced efficacy.
