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
The primary objectives of this study were to investigate the suitability of a 6-probe cocktail (caffeine, tolbutamide, omeprazole, dextromethorphan, midazolam, and digoxin) to be used as a tool for assessing the activity of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters, and examine differences in the way drugs are handled among groups with different genetic regulation of these processes. This was a single-center, open-label, phase I clinical study involving 20 young, healthy Chinese volunteers (equal gender distribution). The subjects were administered a single, oral dose of the 6-probe cocktail and serum samples were collected to assess the disposition of the different probe substrates and produced metabolites. The serum samples were analyzed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry technology. The DNA samples were subjected to whole exome sequencing. Nineteen healthy volunteers completed the study. The 6-probe cocktail was safe and well-tolerated by all the subjects. The parent substrates and metabolites-caffeine (paraxanthine), dextromethorphan (dextrorphan), digoxin, midazolam (1-hydroxy-midazolam), omeprazole (5-hydroxy-omeprazole), and tolbutamide (4-hydroxy-tolbutamide)-were within the detectable window. Genetic variations known to alter drug metabolism (CYP2D6*10, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, and CYP2C9*3) were identified and generally correlated with phenotypic status. The 6-probe cocktail appeared to be suitable for assessing drug metabolizing activities. This, in conjunction with individual genetics, will pave the way for the implementation of personalized medicine in clinical practice. This will hopefully improve efficacy and reduce the incidence of adverse drug reactions.
