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

objectiveCurrently, the only approved standard Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treatment in Japan is oral steroids, which have various disadvantages. Previous work has suggested that hematopoietic-type prostaglandin D synthase (HPGDS), involved in production of the inflammatory mediator prostaglandin D

methodsThis was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase I study to evaluate the use of single or 7-day repeated doses of TAS-205 administered orally. The urinary excretion of PGD

resultsThe PK analysis set included 15 and 14 patients in the single- and repeated-dose periods, respectively; the pharmacodynamics set and the safety set included 21 and 19 patients in each period, respectively. The PK of TAS-205 were linear in the dose range studied (1.67-13.33 mg/kg/dose) and the plasma concentration of TAS-205 reached steady state by Day 4. TAS-205 dose-dependently decreased the urinary excretion of tetranor-prostaglandin D metabolite at each measurement time point and did not affect the urinary excretion of tetranor-prostaglandin E metabolite. No clinically significant adverse events were reported after TAS-205 single or repeated administration.

interpretationWe confirmed the safety and tolerability of TAS-205 in this study. TAS-205 decreased the total urinary excretion of PGD
