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

backgroundFimasartan (FMS) is a potent angiotensin receptor blocker for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension. This study aimed to evaluate the transfer of FMS to fetus and breast milk in rats.

methodsIn order to study the transfer to the fetus and nursing pup, pregnant and nursing maternal rats were administered with FMS by a constant intravenous infusion to reach target plasma concentrations of 200 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL. The concentrations of FMS in plasma, placenta, amniotic fluid, fetus, and milk were determined by a validated LC-MS/MS assay.

resultsUpon constant intravenous infusion, the plasma FMS concentration reached the target steady state concentrations (Css = 200 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL) in 24 h. The tissue-to-plasma partition coefficients (Kp) for placenta, amniotic fluid, and milk were obtained based on the observed FMS concentrations in the tissues and Css. The Kp values for all tissues were not different between high (Css = 200 ng/mL) and low (Css = 100 ng/mL) dose groups. While the mean Kp of the placenta was 44.6-59.0 %, the mean Kp was 1.3-1.7 % for the amniotic fluid and 14.9-17.0 % for fetus. The mean Kp of milk was 10.4-15.2 %.

conclusionsPlacental transfer and milk excretion of FMS was relatively lower compared to other angiotensin receptor blockers.
