A Pharmacokinetic Natural Product-Disease-Drug Interaction: A Double Hit of Silymarin and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis on Hepatic Transporters in a Rat Model.
Article in The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) exhibit altered hepatic protein expression of metabolizing enzymes and transporters and altered xenobiotic pharmacokinetics. The botanical natural product silymarin, which has been investigated as a treatment of NASH, contains flavonolignans that inhibit organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) transporter function. The purpose of this study was to assess the individual and combined effects of NASH and silymarin on the disposition of the model OATP substrate pitavastatin. Male Sprague Dawley rats were fed a control or a methionine- and choline-deficient diet (NASH model) for 8 weeks. Silymarin (10 mg/kg) or vehicle followed by pitavastatin (0.5 mg/kg) were administered intravenously, and the pharmacokinetics were determined. NASH increased mean total flavonolignan area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC
