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

Heart failure (HF) causes pathological changes in multiple organs, thus affecting the pharmacokinetics (PK) of drugs. The aim of this study was to investigate the PK of candesartan in patients with HF while examining significant covariates and their related impact on estimated clearance using a population PK (Pop-PK) modeling approach. Data from a prospective, multicenter study were used. Modeling and simulations were conducted using Nonlinear Mixed-Effects Modeling (NONMEM) and R software. A total of 281 white patients were included to develop the Pop-PK model. The final model developed for apparent oral clearance (CL/F) included weight, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and diabetes, which partly explained its interindividual variability. The mean CL/F value estimated was 7.6 L/h (1.7-22.6 L/h). Simulations revealed that an important decrease in CL/F (> 25%) is obtained with the combination of the factors retained in the final model. Considering these factors, a more individualized approach of candesartan dosing should be investigated in patients with HF.
