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

purposeThis study employed a mouse model to evaluate the effects of diabetic nephropathy on the pharmacokinetics of 8C2, a murine monoclonal antibody (mAb).

methodsStreptozotocin (STZ) was administered to mice to induce diabetic nephropathy (125 mg/kg/day × 2). Mice were grouped (n = 8-10) based on time after STZ-treatment (control, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 weeks), and injected intravenously with 10 mg/kg 8C2. Blood samples were collected up to 7 days, and 8C2 plasma concentrations were determined via immunoassay. Inulin clearance and urinary albumin excretion rate (UAE) were determined to assess renal function.

resultsUAE, inulin clearance, and 8C2 clearance increased significantly following STZ. Comparing control and 6 week STZ-treatment groups, UAE and inulin clearance increased from 25.7 ± 3.3 to 99.3 ± 13.7 μg/day, and from 421 ± 31 to 584 ± 78 μl/min. 8C2 clearance increased from 121 ± 12.5 to 228 ± 61 μl/hr/kg (p < 0.01). 8C2 clearance was highly correlated with UAE (r(2): 0.731). Inclusion of UAE as a covariate in population modeling explained significant residual variability in 8C2 clearance.

conclusionsThe clearance of 8C2 increased significantly in STZ-treated mice. Population pharmacokinetic modeling suggests that UAE has potential for use in predicting mAb clearance in subjects with diabetic nephropathy, possibly assisting in the individualization of mAb dosing.
