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

purposeTo investigate the role of organic cation transporters (Octs) and multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (Mate1) in the disposition of thiamine.

methodsThe uptake of [(3)H]thiamine was determined in Oct1-, Oct2-, and Oct3-expressing HEK293 cells and freshly isolated hepatocytes. A pharmacokinetic study of thiamine-d3 following intravenous infusion (1 and 100 nmol/min/kg) was conducted in male Oct1/2(+/+) and Oct1/2(-/-) mice. A MATE inhibitor, pyrimethamine, (5 mg/kg) was administered intravenously. The plasma and breast milk concentrations of thiamine were determined in female mice.

resultsThiamine is a substrate of Oct1 and Oct2, but not Oct3. Oct1/2 defect caused a significant reduction in the uptake of [(3)H]thiamine by hepatocytes in vitro, and elevated the plasma thiamine concentration by 5.8-fold in vivo. The plasma clearance of thiamine-d3 was significantly decreased in Oct1/2(-/-) mice. At the higher infusion rate of 100 nmol/min/kg thiamine-d3, Oct1/2 defect or pyrimethamine-treatment caused a significant reduction in the renal clearance of thiamine-d3. The total thiamine and thiamine-d3 concentrations were moderately reduced in the intestine of Oct1/2(-/-) mice but were unchanged in the kidney, liver, or brain. The milk-to-plasma concentration ratio of thiamine was decreased by 28-fold in the Oct1/2(-/-) mice.

conclusionsOct1 is possibly responsible for the plasma clearance of thiamine via tissue uptake and for milk secretion. Oct1/2 and Mate1 are involved in the renal tubular secretion of thiamine.
