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

purposeTo investigate individual metabolism-related determinants of metoprolol disposition and effects in patients receiving the drug as standard treatment for acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

methodsWe recruited 187 AMI patients receiving metoprolol on clinical grounds and genotyped them for CYP2D6 *3, *4, *10, and gene duplication. Heart rates (HR) at admission and discharge were registered. Clinical details were derived from the case histories. Metoprolol and alpha-hydroxy-metoprolol were analyzed by HPLC in plasma before and after 2, 6 and 12 h post dose in the first 115 patients. HR at rest was registered after each sampling. Ventricular rhythm disturbance (VRD) association with CYP2D6 activity, found accidentally, was studied in a newly formed subgroup (n = 23).

resultsMetoprolol represented 85% of all beta-blocker prescriptions. CYP2D6 genotype distribution was comparable with other Caucasian populations. Genotypically poor metabolizers (PM, n = 2) exhibited the most pronounced bradycardia at discharge, while in the ultrarapid metabolizers (UM, n = 7) therapeutic effect was not achieved. Metoprolol and alpha-hydroxy-metoprolol plasma concentration AUCs differed significantly between the genotypes corresponding to predicted metabolic activity (P < 0.005). Correspondingly, the mean HRs were lower in PMs and increased with increasing number of active CYP2D6 genes (P < 0.05). Trough metoprolol concentrations were only quantifiable in patients with at least one mutated allele. Neither decreased cardiac ejection fraction nor age and gender influenced metoprolol disposition. Higher mean number of active CYP2D6 genes was found in patients with VRDs (2.2 vs. 1.7), which could not be clearly explained by metoprolol concentrations. CYP2D6 gene duplication was overrepresented in this group (22 vs. 2%, P = 0.0002).

conclusionMetoprolol disposition and effects are mainly controlled by CYP2D6 genotype. Patients with gene duplication are at high risk of not benefiting from treatment due to lower metoprolol concentrations. Higher CYP2D6 activity seems to be associated with VRDs complicating AMI, being a negative prognostic factor for patients' survival.
