Pharmacokinetics of Saquinavir Mesylate from Oral Self-Emulsifying Lipid-Based Delivery Systems.
Article in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesAlthough lipid-based drug delivery systems have gained much importance in recent years due to their ability to improve the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs, compartmental pharmacokinetic analyses have not been extensively explored. The oral pharmacokinetics of commercial liquid formulation and a developed semisolid system containing saquinavir mesylate (SQVM) were compared in Beagle dogs. A compartmental analysis after intravenous bolus administration of this drug (1 mg/kg) was also performed.
methodPharmacokinetic profiles were analyzed using both non-compartmental and compartmental approaches. Plasma concentration of the drug was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS).
resultsThe disposition curve of SQVM given intravenously was better described by a three-compartment model. In contrast, plasma profiles obtained following the oral administration were fitted to a two-compartment model with lag time due to the fact that the distribution phase was masked by the absorption phase in these formulations.
conclusionThe proposed semisolid lipid system was found to be a promising formulation for commercial purposes given the similarity of SQVM absorption rate to that from the commercial liquid formulation.
