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

Limited understanding of drug pharmacokinetics in children is one of the major challenges in paediatric drug development. This is most critical in neonates and infants owing to rapid changes in physiological functions, especially in the activity of drug-metabolising enzymes. Paediatric physiologically based pharmacokinetic models that integrate ontogeny functions for cytochrome P450 enzymes have aided our understanding of drug exposure in children, including those under the age of 2 years. Paediatric physiologically based pharmacokinetic models have consequently been recognised by the European Medicines Agency and the US Food and Drug Administration as innovative tools in paediatric drug development and regulatory decision making. However, little is currently known about age-related changes in UDP-glucuronosyltransferase-mediated metabolism, which represents the most important conjugation reaction for xenobiotics. Therefore, the objective of the review was to conduct a thorough literature survey to summarise our current understanding of age-related changes in UDP-glucuronosyltransferases as well as associated clinical and experimental sources of variance. Our findings indicate that there are distinct differences in UDP-glucuronosyltransferase expression and activity between isoforms for different age groups. In addition, there is substantial variability between individuals and laboratories reported for human liver microsomes, which results in part from a lack of standardised experimental conditions. Therefore, we provide a number of best practice recommendations for experimental conditions, which ultimately may help improve the quality of data used for quantitative clinical pharmacology approaches, and thus for safe and effective pharmacotherapy in children.
