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

backgroundTo facilitate new drug development, physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling methods receive growing attention as a tool to fully understand and predict complex pharmacokinetic phenomena. As the number of parameters to reproduce physiological functions tend to be large in PBPK models, efficient parameter estimation methods are essential. We have successfully applied a recently developed algorithm to estimate a feasible solution space, called Cluster Newton Method (CNM), to reveal the cause of irinotecan pharmacokinetic alterations in two cancer patient groups.

resultsAfter improvements in the original CNM algorithm to maintain parameter diversities, a feasible solution space was successfully estimated for 55 or 56 parameters in the irinotecan PBPK model, within ten iterations, 3000 virtual samples, and in 15 minutes (Intel Xeon E5-1620 3.60GHz × 1 or Intel Core i7-870 2.93GHz × 1). Control parameters or parameter correlations were clarified after the parameter estimation processes. Possible causes in the irinotecan pharmacokinetic alterations were suggested, but they were not conclusive.

conclusionsApplication of CNM achieved a feasible solution space by solving inverse problems of a system containing ordinary differential equations (ODEs). This method may give us reliable insights into other complicated phenomena, which have a large number of parameters to estimate, under limited information. It is also helpful to design prospective studies for further investigation of phenomena of interest.
