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

introductionMultilevel modeling is a quantitative statistical method to investigate variability and relationships between variables of interest, taking into account population structure and dependencies. It can be used for prediction, data reduction and causal inference from experiments and observational studies allowing for more efficient elucidation of knowledge.

objectivesIn this study we introduced the concept of multilevel pharmacokinetics (PK)-driven modelling for large-sample, unbalanced and unadjusted metabolomics data comprising nucleoside and creatinine concentration measurements in urine of healthy and cancer patients.

methodsA Bayesian multilevel model was proposed to describe the nucleoside and creatinine concentration ratio considering age, sex and health status as covariates. The predictive performance of the proposed model was summarized via area under the ROC, sensitivity and specificity using external validation.

resultsCancer was associated with an increase in methylthioadenosine/creatinine excretion rate by a factor of 1.42 (1.09-2.03) which constituted the highest increase among all nucleosides. Age influenced nucleosides/creatinine excretion rates for all nucleosides in the same direction which was likely caused by a decrease in creatinine clearance with age. There was a small evidence of sex-related differences for methylthioadenosine. The individual

conclusionBayesian multilevel pharmacokinetics-driven modeling in metabolomics may be useful in understanding the data and may constitute a new tool for searching towards potential candidates of disease indicators.
