The impact of cytochrome P450 3A genetic polymorphisms on tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in ulcerative colitis patients.
Article in PloS one, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Tacrolimus (Tac) is an effective remission inducer of refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). Gene polymorphisms result in interindividual variability in Tac pharmacokinetics. In this study, we aimed to examine the relationships between gene polymorphisms and the metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and therapeutic effects of Tac in patients with UC. Forty-five patients with moderate-to-severe refractory UC treated with Tac were retrospectively enrolled. Genotyping for cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4*1G, CYP3A5*3, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group I member 2 (NR1I2)-25385C>T, ATP-binding cassette subfamily C member 2 (ABCC2)-24C>T, ABCC2 1249G>A, and ABCC2 3972C>T was performed. Concentration/dose (C/D) ratio, clinical therapeutic effects, and adverse events were evaluated. The C/D ratio of Tac in UC patients with the CYP3A4*1G allele was statistically lower than in those with the CYP3A4*1/*1 allele (P = 0.005) and significantly lower in patients with CYP3A5*3/*3 than in those with CYP3A5*1 (P < 0.001). Among patients with the CYP3A4*1G allele, the C/D ratio was significantly lower in patients with CYP3A5*1 than in those with CYP3A5*3/*3 (P = 0.001). Patients with the NR1I2-25385C/C genotype presented significantly more overall adverse events than those with the C/T or T/T genotype (P = 0.03). Although CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms were related to Tac pharmacokinetics, CYP3A5 presented a stronger effect than CYP3A4. The NR1I2-25385C/C genotype was related to the overall adverse events. The evaluation of these polymorphisms could be useful in the treatment of UC with Tac.
