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

Doxifluridine (5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine, 5'-dFUR) is a fluoropyrimidine derivative that is activated preferentially in malignant cells by thymidine phosphorylase to form 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The purpose of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of doxifluridine and its two major metabolites, 5-FU, and 5-fluorouridine (5-FUrd), in beagle dogs following a single oral administration of 200 mg doxifluridine capsule (Furtulon(®)). After the administration of 200 mg of Furtulon to 23 beagle dogs, the plasma concentrations of doxifluridine, 5-FU, and 5-FUrd were measured simultaneously, using LC-MS/MS. The parent-metabolite compartment model with first-order absorption and Michaelis-Menten kinetics described the pharmacokinetics of doxifluridine, 5-FU, and 5-FUrd. Michaelis-Menten kinetics sufficiently explained the generation and elimination processes of 5-FU and 5-FUrd. The studies described here are the first to evaluate the relationship between pharmacokinetics of doxifluridine and its metabolites in dogs, and these findings will help in understanding the toxicity mechanism of doxifluridine.
