Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Esaxerenone, a Novel Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist: A Review.
Review in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Esaxerenone is a selective, nonsteroidal, high-affinity mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist recently approved in Japan for the treatment of hypertension. It has high oral biovailability, a large volume of distribution, and is primarly metabolized in liver and excreted in bile. Esaxerenone is an efficient antihypertensive, whether given alone or as add-on therapy. The antihypertensive effect is accompanied by renoprotective action, which is being further investigated in current clinical trials. Due to its relatively long half-life and high affinity for the mineralocorticoid receptor, esaxerenone is administered once daily and in low absolute doses. The safety of esaxerenone is considerable, since hyperkalemia is not frequent and, when it does appear, not sustained. Endocrine adverse events, which frequently occur with steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, are extremely rare with esaxerenone. Although the risk of clinically significant drug-drug interactions is not high, esaxerenone treatment should start with low doses, with subsequent titration to achieve the optimal clinical effect, all while monitoring serum potassium and paying attention to concomitant therapy with drugs that may induce or inhibit esaxerenone metabolism. This review article offers comprehensive information about the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of esaxerenone in humans, which should help clinicians to more precisely tailor esaxerenone dosing regimens to their patients.
