Influence of ABCB1 gene polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of verapamil among healthy Chinese Han ethnic subjects.
Article in British journal of clinical pharmacology, 2009. 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 association between polymorphisms of the ABCB1 gene and the pharmacokinetics of verapamil among healthy Chinese Han ethnic subjects.
methodsBased on polymorphisms of the ABCB1 gene at positions 2677 and 3435, 24 healthy male participants were divided into three groups: 2677GG/3435CC (n = 6), 2677GT/3435CT (n = 12) and 2677TT/3435TT (n = 6). Each subject had received a single oral dose of verapamil (80 mg) under fasting conditions. Multiple blood samples were collected over 24 h, and plasma concentrations of verapamil were determined by HPLC. Pharmacokinetic characteristics were compared between the different genotypic groups.
resultsThe pharmacokinetics parameters of verapamil differed significantly among the three genotypic groups. AUC(last) was significantly lower among individuals with the 2677TT/3435TT (159.5 +/- 79.0 ng ml(-1) h) and 2677GT/3435CT (189.3 +/- 73.1 ng ml(-1) h) genotypes than those with the 2677GG/3435CC genotype (303.1 +/- 83.7 ng ml(-1) h) (P= 0.004 and P= 0.008, respectively). However, the CL/F value was higher among subjects with the 2677TT/3435TT (523.0 +/- 173.7 l h(-1)) genotype than those with the 2677GT/3435CT (452.2 +/- 188.6 l h(-1)) or 2677GG/3435CC (265.4 +/- 72.8 l h(-1)) genotypes. A significant difference was also found between the latter two groups (P= 0.034). In addition, the C(max) tended to be higher among subjects with the 2677GG/3435CC genotype than those with the 2677GT/3435CT or 2677TT/3435TT genotypes (42.2 +/- 3.9 vs 32.2 +/- 16.2 vs 38.1 +/- 13.7 ng ml(-1)).
conclusionsOur study showed for the first time that verapamil pharmacokinetics may be influenced by particular genetic polymorphisms of the ABCB1 gene among healthy Chinese Han ethnic subjects. An individualized dosage regimen design incorporating such information may improve the efficacy of the drug whilst reducing adverse reactions.
