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

backgroundRavidasvir (RAV) has been regarded as a potent new NS5A inhibitor with a magnificent safety and tolerability in the management of genotype 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients. Suitable analytical techniques are needed for the measurement of RAV in different biological matrices.

methodsWe have developed a fast, sensitive and economical 96-microwell-based spectrofluorimetric technique combined with one-step protein precipitation extraction strategy for the measurement of RAV in rat plasma.

resultsUnder the optimum conditions, the direct relationship in rat plasma was accomplished between the RAV concentrations and the fluorescence (FL) intensity in a scope of 2.5-200 ng/mL with 0.9998 and 0.9999 for the quantification and correlation coefficients, respectively. The lower limit of detection (LLOD) was 0.840 ng/mL and this demonstrates the high sensitivity of the proposed assay. The accuracy (RE%) ranged from 95.34% to 102.29%, and the precision (RSD%) was less than 3.59%. The recovery was ranged from 93.12% to 96.26%. The stability of RAV in rat plasma was carried out and established its good stability in the range of room conventional temperature and at long-term stability (-80°C, 30 days). The developed technique was validated as stated by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US-FDA) guidelines for bioanalytical technique verification.

conclusionThe approved technique was effectively applied for a pharmacokinetic (PK) study after single oral gavage administration of RAV at a dose of 35 mg/kg and it could be presumed that the proposed assay can be applied to clinical trials.
