Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Mycophenolic Acid as a Precision Medicine Tool for Heart Transplant Patients: Results of an Observational Pharmacokinetic Pilot Study.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 the clinical practice management of heart transplant (HTx), the impact of calcineurin inhibitors co-administration on pharmacokinetics (PKs) of mycophenolic acid (MPA), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) active drug, is not adequately considered. This retrospective study investigated full MPA-PK profiles by therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in 21 HTx recipients treated with MMF combined with cyclosporine (CsA) or tacrolimus (TAC) at a median time of 2.6 months post-transplant. The two treatment groups were compared. We described the main MPA-PK parameters in patients developing acute cellular rejection (ACR) and those who did not. Median dose-adjusted MPA-trough levels and MPA-AUC
