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

aimIn this study, to assess the utility of lipid emulsion (ILE) therapy as a treatment option for overdoses of lipophilic drugs, we examined the detoxification effect of ILE therapy in rats that were administered overdoses of the tricyclic antidepressant clomipramine hydrochloride (CMI).

methodsFemale Wistar rats were orally administered 50 mg/kg CMI five times in 2-h intervals to examine whether intralipos accelerated the elimination of CMI in the peripheral blood. Rats were divided into the intralipos (i.v. 2 g/kg intralipos) and placebo (i.v. saline) groups. The concentrations of CMI and desmethylclomipramine (DMCMI), a metabolite of CMI, in blood were measured over time by high-performance liquid chromatography. We then gave the animals 100 mg/kg CMI orally to examine whether intralipos could inhibit the distribution of CMI. The CMI and DMCMI concentrations in peripheral blood, liver, and brain were measured 60 min after intralipos administration.

resultsThe blood concentration of CMI was significantly higher in the intralipos group than in the placebo group at 60 and 120 min. After a single administration of 100 mg/kg CMI, the ratio of the concentration of CMI in liver/serum was significantly lower in the intralipos group than in the placebo group. We also found a significantly faster elimination rate for CMI in peripheral blood in the intralipos group than in the placebo group.

conclusionThe distribution of CMI from blood to tissue was suppressed by intralipos. Therefore, ILE therapy is a promising candidate for the treatment of overdoses of lipophilic drugs.
