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

purposeVarious blood collection methods were developed and used in the pharmacokinetic evaluation of drugs. However, the influence of different blood sampling methods on plasma drug concentrations has not been clarified. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether the plasma concentration of a target drug changes based on the collection site and elucidate the mechanism responsible for this change.

methodsWe compared three blood sampling methods commonly used in small animals. Eight clinical drugs were selected and administered to rats simultaneously via intracardiac injection or oral gavage. Blood samples were collected from different sites at the same individual, and pharmacokinetic properties of the drugs were then evaluated.

resultsStudy results showed that the maximum plasma concentration or area under the curve of three study drugs was significantly higher in rats when blood was sampled from the carotid artery than when it was sampled from the caudal vein or by tail snip.

conclusionsPharmacokinetics of certain drugs may differ based on the blood sampling site. The acid-base properties of drugs may influence pharmacokinetic evaluation. The rate and extent of drug distribution may also cause such differences and have significant effects on plasma drug levels.
