Contribution of pH to systemic exposure of niflumic acid following oral administration of talniflumate.
Trial report in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeSystemic exposure to niflumic acid was significantly increased when talniflumate was given orally together with a meal. To clarify the underlying mechanism, an in vitro dissolution study of talniflumateonducted at different pH values, and magnesium hydroxide was co-administered in healthy volunteers.
methodsIn vitro dissolution tests of talniflumate tablets were performed in a USP Paddle apparatus at pH 1.2, 4.0, and 6.8, respectively, in the presence and absence of Tween 80 (2%). Serial samples of the talniflumate solution were taken and analyzed on a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/ultraviolet system. Healthy volunteers were divided randomly into two groups, and each volunteer received a single 740-mg dose of talniflumate, with or without 1 g of magnesium hydroxide, following an overnight fast. The plasma concentrations of niflumic acid were measured using HPLC coupled with tandem mass spectrometry.
resultsTalniflumate was completely insoluble at each of the tested pHs in the absence of Tween 80. The drug was slowly and steadily dissolved (54%) at pH 4 in the presence of the surfactant, but the extent of dissolution was only 15 and 0.5% at pH 1.2 and 6.0, respectively. Magnesium hydroxide co-administered with talniflumate significantly increased systemic exposure to niflumic acid: the mean maximum plasma concentration (C (max)) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC (inf)) were augmented by 2.0- and 1.9-fold, respectively, compared with those in the absence of the antacid. Magnesium hydroxide significantly accelerated the appearance of niflumic acid in plasma by 2.8-fold.
conclusionsMagnesium hydroxide increases the rate and extent of systemic exposure to niflumic acid owing to the enhanced solubility of talniflumate and absorption of niflumic acid. The possible combination of talniflumate and an antacid should be considered in the development of pharmaceutical formulations.
