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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesCarotegrast methyl, a novel prodrug, oral antagonist of α4-integrin, is in development for the treatment of active ulcerative colitis. This randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study evaluated the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics as well as the safety profile after a single dose of carotegrast methyl in healthy male subjects.

methodsSubjects were randomised to receive a single dose of carotegrast methyl (240, 480 or 960 mg) or placebo in a 6:2 ratio and received the study drug under both fed and fasted conditions separated by an 8-day washout. The pharmacokinetic profiles of carotegrast methyl and its active metabolite, carotegrast, were assessed. The pharmacodynamic profile was evaluated according to a change in the peripheral lymphocyte count. Safety was monitored throughout.

resultsBased on the area under the time curve from zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC

conclusionsDespite the reduced systemic exposure to both carotegrast methyl and carotegrast, food had no effect on the increase in lymphocyte count. A single administration of carotegrast methyl up to 960 mg was found to be safe.
