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

The objectives of this study were to elucidate absorption, tissue distribution, excretion, and metabolism of vitacoxib, a novel selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, in Wistar rats. Vitacoxib was detected in most tissues within 15 min, suggesting that it was well distributed. Moreover, it could cross the intestinal barrier. Vitacoxib was mainly eliminated as two metabolites. Nine proposed metabolites of vitacoxib were found in the plasma, bile, urine, and feces of rats. Two main metabolites, 4-(4-chloro-1-(5-(methyl-sulfonyl) pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl) phenyl methanol (M1) and 4-(4-chloro-1-(5-(methyl-sulfonyl) pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl) benzoic acid (M2), were identified in rat feces and urine. Further, the authentic standards of M1 and M2 were synthesized to confirm their structures. The carboxylic acid derivative was the major metabolite of vitacoxib excreted in the urine and feces. Hydroxylation of the aromatic methyl group of vitacoxib and additional oxidation of the hydroxymethyl metabolite to a carboxylic acid metabolite were the proposed metabolic pathways. Vitacoxib displayed a high
