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

purposeThe aim of this study was to assess and compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) properties and bioequivalence of montelukast sodium chewable tablets prepared by two different manufacturers in healthy Chinese volunteers to obtain adequate PK evidence for the registration approval of the test formulation. PATIENTS AND

methodsA randomized-sequence, single-dose, open-label, 2-period crossover study was conducted in fasted and fed healthy Chinese volunteers (Chinese Clinical Trials Registry identifier: CTR20182362). Eighteen subjects each were selected for a fasted study and a fed study. Eligible participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive a single dose of the reference formulation or the test formulation, followed by a 5-day washout period and the administration of the alternate formulation. Plasma samples were collected over a 24-hour period following tablet administration and analyzed for montelukast contents by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The PK parameters, such as maximum serum concentration (C

resultsThe geometric mean ratios (GMRs) between the two formulations for the primary pharmacokinetic parameters (C

conclusionThe PK analysis revealed that the test and reference formulations of montelukast sodium chewable tablets were bioequivalent and well-tolerated by healthy Chinese subjects.
