The impact of pregnancy on urinary ketorolac metabolites after single intravenous bolus.
Article in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Compared to female volunteers or postpartum, ketorolac clearance is higher at delivery. To explore the alterations that explain this higher clearance, urinary ketorolac metabolites collected at delivery (n = 40) were compared to female volunteers (unpaired, n = 8) or postpartum (paired, n = 8) following intravenous administration of 30 mg ketorolac tromethamine. A mean 38 (SD 9) % of the ketorolac dose was retrieved in 8-h urine collections. This was based on mean portions of 56 (20), 10 (14) and 33 (12) % for free ketorolac, ketorolac-glucuronide and p-hydroxy-ketorolac, respectively. The mean ketorolac-glucuronide portion at delivery (5 %) was lower compared to female volunteers (21 %) or postpartum (21 %) (p = 0.003 and p = 0.002, respectively). Similarly, there was a difference in mean portion of free urinary ketorolac at delivery when compared to healthy female volunteers (60-45 %, p = 0.046). Using paired statistics, the mean portion of total urinary ketorolac was lower (62-73 %, p = 0.015) while the portion retrieved as p-hydroxy-ketorolac was significantly higher at delivery compared to postpartum (38-28 %, p = 0.031). The differences in urine metabolites suggest that the increased ketorolac clearance at delivery is in part explained by increased metabolic clearance to p-hydroxy-ketorolac, reflecting increased oxidation activity.
