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

aimsDoxycycline (DFD-09) oral capsules 40 mg are approved for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of rosacea. Unlike the food-induced lowering of doxycycline's peak plasma concentration (C

methodsThe pharmacokinetics of doxycycline in the dermal interstitial fluid (d-ISF) and plasma of healthy volunteers were assessed in parallel groups under fed (n = 6) and fasting (n = 6) conditions during a 14-day once-daily treatment course with doxycycline oral capsules 40 mg (DFD-09). Sampling of d-ISF and plasma was performed on days 1, 10 (fasting group d-ISF only) and 14.

resultsTwelve subjects were randomized, and 11 analysed. No causally drug-related adverse events occurred. Dermal doxycycline exposures (C

conclusionsAt steady state, doxycycline concentrations in the skin of fed and fasting healthy volunteers were comparable. Doxycycline's efficacy in rosacea is possibly due to considerable dermal accumulation of unbound doxycycline and is independent of the effect of food.
