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

purposeMethotrexate (MTX) causes dose-limiting gastrointestinal toxicity due to exposure of intestinal tissues, and is a substrate of the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 1. Here we examine the involvement of MRP1, which is reported to be highly expressed in the proliferative crypt compartment of the small intestine, in the gastrointestinal toxicity of MTX.

methodsMTX was intraperitoneally administered to mrp1 gene knockout (mrp1 ((-/-))) and wild-type (mrp1 ((+/+))) mice. Body weight, food and water intake were monitored, intestinal histological studies and pharmacokinetics of MTX were examined.

resultsmrp1 ((-/-)) mice more severely decreased body weight, food and water intake than mrp1 ((+/+)) mice. Almost complete loss of villi throughout the small intestine in mrp1 ((-/-)) mice was observed, whereas the damage was only partial in mrp1 ((+/+)) mice. Plasma concentration and biliary excretion profiles of MTX were similar in mrp1 ((-/-)) and mrp1 ((+/+)) mice, though accumulation of MTX in immature proliferative cells isolated from mrp1 ((-/-)) mice was much higher compared to mrp1 ((+/+)) mice. Immunostaining revealed localization of Mrp1 in plasma membrane of the intestinal crypt compartment in mrp1 ((+/+)) mice, but not in mrp1 ((-/-)) mice.

conclusionMrp1 determines the exposure of proliferative cells in the small intestine to MTX, followed by gastrointestinal toxicity.
