Article in Journal of pain research, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05329454 (An Open-label, Randomized, 3-way Crossover Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Investigational Product Ibuprofen Modified-Release Tablets 800 mg Compared to Ibuprofen Tablets 800 mg in Healthy Volunteers), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

objectiveTo characterize the single-dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of biphasic immediate-release/extended-release hydrocodone bitartrate/acetaminophen (IR/ER HB/APAP), IR HB/ibuprofen, and IR tramadol HCl/APAP.

methodsIn this single-center, open-label, randomized, four-period crossover study, healthy participants received four treatments under fasted conditions: 1) a single dose of two IR/ER HB/APAP 7.5/325 mg tablets (15/650 mg total dose) on day 1, followed by two tablets every 12 hours (q12h) beginning on day 3; 2) a single dose of IR HB/ibuprofen 15/400 mg (divided as one 7.5/200 mg tablet at hour 0 and 6), followed by one tablet every 6 hours (q6h) beginning on day 3; 3) a single dose of IR tramadol HCl/APAP 75/650 mg (divided as one 37.5/325 mg tablet at hour 0 and 6), followed by one tablet q6h beginning on day 3; and 4) a single dose of three IR/ER HB/APAP 7.5/325 mg tablets (22.5/975 mg total dose) on day 1, a three-tablet initial dose at 48 hours followed by two-tablet doses q12h beginning on day 3. Hydrocodone and APAP single-dose and steady-state PK were assessed. Adverse events were monitored.

resultsThe PK analysis was carried out on 29 of 48 enrolled participants who completed all treatment periods. Single-dose hydrocodone exposure was similar for IR/ER HB/APAP 22.5/975 mg and IR HB/ibuprofen 15/400 mg; time to maximum observed plasma concentration was shorter and half-life was longer for IR/ER HB/APAP (22.5/975 mg and 15/650 mg) vs IR HB/ibuprofen. Single-dose APAP exposure was similar for IR/ER HB/APAP 15/650 mg and IR tramadol HCl/APAP 75/650 mg. Steady-state hydrocodone and APAP exposures were similar between treatments. Adverse events were similar for each treatment and typical of low-dose combination opioid analgesics. With dosing q12h, IR/ER HB/APAP had half as many concentration peaks and troughs as the comparators treated q6h.

conclusionWith dosing q12h, IR/ER HB/APAP provided similar peak and total steady-state hydrocodone and APAP exposure vs IR comparators.
