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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesPrevious studies reported that tapentadol-sulfate represented one of the major metabolites of tapentadol excreted in urine. The current study aimed to identify the human cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs) that is(are) capable of sulfating tapentadol and to examine whether human cells and human organ specimens are capable of sulfating tapentadol.

methodsThirteen human SULTs, previously expressed and purified, as well as human organ cytosols, were analyzed for tapentadol-sulfating activity using an established sulfotransferase assay. Cultured HepG2 human hepatoma cells and Caco-2 human colon carcinoma cells were labeled with [

resultsThree of the thirteen human SULTs, SULT1A1, SULT1A3, and SULT1C4, were found to display sulfating activity toward tapentadol. Kinetic analysis revealed that SULT1A3 displayed the highest catalytic efficiency in mediating the sulfation of tapentadol, followed by SULT1A1 and SULT1C4. Using cultured HepG2 and Caco-2 cells, the generation and release of sulfated tapentadol under metabolic conditions was demonstrated. Moreover, of the four human organ specimens (kidney, liver, lung, and small intestine) tested, the cytosols prepared from small intestine and liver showed significant tapentadol-sulfating capacity (at 0.0203 and 0.0054 nmol/min/mg, respectively).

conclusionTaken together, the results derived from the current study provided a molecular basis underlying the sulfation of tapentadol in humans.
