Influence of MAMA decoction, an Herbal Antimalarial, on the Pharmacokinetics of Amodiaquine in Mice.
Article in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveMAMA decoction (MD) is an antimalarial product prepared from the leaves of Mangifera indica L. (Anacardiaceae), Alstonia boonei De Wild (Apocynaceae), Morinda lucida Benth (Rubiaceae) and Azadirachta indica A. Juss (Meliaceae). A previous report showed that MD enhanced the efficacy of amodiaquine (AQ) in malaria-infected mice, thus suggesting a herb-drug interaction. The present study hence evaluated the effect of MD on the disposition of AQ in mice with a view to investigating a possible pharmacokinetic interaction.
methodsIn a 3-period study design, three groups of mice (n = 72) were administered oral doses of AQ (10 mg/kg/day) alone, concurrently with MD (120 mg/kg/day), and in the 3rd period, mice were given AQ after a 3-day pre-treatment with MD. Blood samples were collected between 0 and 96 h for quantification of AQ and its major metabolite, desethylamodiaquine, by a validated high-performance liquid chromatography method.
resultsMaximum concentrations of AQ increased by 12% with the concurrent dosing of MD and by 85% in the group of mice pre-treated with MD. The exposure and half-life of desethylamodiaquine increased by approximately 11% and 21%, respectively, with concurrent administration. Corresponding increases of approximately 20% and 33% of desethylamodiaquine were also observed in mice pre-treated with MD.
conclusionMD influenced the pharmacokinetics of AQ and desethylamodiaquine, its major metabolite. The increase in the half-life and systemic exposure of AQ following its co-administration with MD may provide a basis for the enhanced pharmacological effect of the combination in an earlier study in Plasmodium-infected mice.
