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

aimsPreterm birth remains a significant risk for later disability. The selective inhibition of the prostaglandin F

methodsWe performed a prospective, first in human, Phase I, dose escalation, placebo-controlled, randomized trial at a clinical trial site in the UK. Placebo, single ascending doses of 10, 30, 100, 300, 1000 or 1300 mg, and multiple ascending doses over 7 days of 100, 300 or 1000 mg day

resultsSubjects tolerated OBE022 well at all single and multiple doses. No clinically relevant changes in safety parameters were shown and there were no serious adverse events. Observations showed that prodrug OBE022 was readily absorbed and rapidly converted into its equally active stable metabolite OBE002. The plasma level of OBE002 rose with increasing doses, reaching exposure levels that were anticipated to be clinically relevant within 1 h following administration. There was no clinically significant food interaction, with peak exposures reduced to 80% and area under the curve staying bioequivalent. The mean half-life of OBE002 ranged between 8 and 11 h following administration of a single dose and 22-29 h after multiple doses.

conclusionsAdministration of OBE022 was safe and had favourable pharmacokinetic characteristics and no clinically relevant interaction with food. Our results allow further investigation of OBE022 in preterm labour patients.
