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

A number of classical pharmacokinetic studies have been conducted in transplant patients. However, they suffer from some limitations, for example, (1) the study design was limited to intense blood sampling in small groups of patients during a certain posttransplant period, (2) patient factors were evaluated one at a time to identify their association with the pharmacokinetic parameters, and (3) mean pharmacokinetic parameters often cannot be precisely estimated due to large intraindividual variability. Population pharmacokinetics provides a potential means of addressing these limitations and is a powerful tool to evaluate the magnitude and consistency of drug exposure. Population pharmacokinetic studies of cyclosporine focused solely on developing limited sampling strategies and Bayesian estimators to estimate drug exposure, have been summarized before, and are, therefore, not a subject of this review. The major focus of this review is to describe factors (demographic factors, hepatic and gastrointestinal functions, drug-drug interactions, genetic polymorphisms of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters) that have been identified to contribute to the large portion of observed variability in the pharmacokinetics of cyclosporine in transplant patients. This review summarizes and interprets the conclusions as well as the nonlinear mixed-effects modeling methodologies used in such studies. A highly diversified collection of structural models, variability models, and covariate submodels have been evaluated and validated using internal or external validation methods. This review also highlights areas where additional research is warranted to improve the models since a portion of model variability still remains unexplained.
