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.

Abstract

backgroundDotinurad is a novel selective urate reabsorption inhibitor (SURI) which reduces serum uric acid levels by selectively inhibiting urate transporter 1 (URAT1). This study was intended to verify the efficacy and safety of dotinurad following treatment for 34 or 58 weeks in hyperuricemic patients with or without gout.

methodsThis long-term study had an open-label design with dose escalation. The dose of dotinurad started at 0.5 mg/day and was increased progressively to 2 mg/day. If the serum uric acid level of patients did not reach ≤ 6 mg/dL at week 14, the dose was increased to 4 mg/day. The primary endpoint was the percent change in serum uric acid level from the baseline to each visit.

resultsAt a dose of 2 mg, serum uric acid levels at week 34 and 58 were reduced from the baseline by 46.73% and 47.17%, respectively; at 4 mg, the respective values were 54.92% and 57.35%. At week 34 and 58, the percentages of patients achieving a serum uric acid levels ≤ 6.0 mg/dL with 2-mg dose were 89.11% and 91.30%, respectively; with 4 mg, the respective rates were 97.50% and 100.00%. In addition, the incidences of adverse events and adverse drug reactions were 65.2% and 21.8%, respectively.

conclusionDotinurad at doses of 2-4-mg sufficiently reduced serum uric acid levels in hyperuricemic patients with or without gout, and its efficacy and safety were verified for long-term administration. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03006445.
