Ziritaxestat Drug-Drug Interaction with Oral Contraceptives: Role of SULT1E1 Inhibition.
Article in Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In vitro signals indicate that ziritaxestat is a weak cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibitor and inducer. Therefore, potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) with oral contraceptives were examined at a time when ziritaxestat was under development for treatment of fibrotic diseases. This open-label, crossover (fixed sequence) DDI study enrolled healthy, nonpregnant women aged 18-65 years (n = 15) who were using highly effective contraception, such as a nonhormonal intrauterine device, bilateral tubal occlusion, or sexual abstinence. A single dose of oral contraceptive (0.03 mg ethinyl estradiol (EE) and 3 mg drospirenone (DRSP)) was administered on days 1, 8, and 18, and ziritaxestat 600 mg once daily was administered from days 8 to 23. Co-administration resulted in a 2.8-fold and 2.4-fold increase in EE maximum plasma concentration (C
