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

Objective: To evaluate drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between gefitinib with/without losartan and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Methods: Results: The isoenzymes that showed drug degradation are listed in parentheses beside the respective drug: gefitinib (CYP2D6, 3A4, 1A2, 2C9, and 2C19), losartan (CYP2C9 and 3A4), citalopram (CYP2D6, 2C19, 3A4, and 2C9), fluoxetine (CYP2D6, 2C9, and 2C19), fluvoxamine (CYP2D6, 2C9, and 2C19), paroxetine (CYP2D6, 3A4, and 2C9), sertraline (CYP2D6, 2C9, 2C19, 1A2, and 3A4), and venlafaxine (CYP2D6 and 2C19).DDIs from human hepatocytes assays revealed that gefitinib had significant metabolic changes in (1:1) combination with paroxetine or sertraline (p-value ​= ​0.042 and 0.025 respectively) and (1:1:1) combination with losartan and fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, or sertraline (p-value ​= ​0.009, 0.027, 0.048, and 0.037 respectively). Losartan showed significant changes in (1:1:1) combination with gefitinib and fluoxetine or sertraline (p-value ​= ​0.026 and 0.008 respectively). Fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, and paroxetine underwent significant changes in (1:1:1) combination with gefitinib and losartan (p-value ​= ​0.003, 0.022, and 0.046 respectively). Sertraline had significant changes within all combinations: DDIs with gefitinib alone and in combination with gefitinib and losartan (p-value ​= ​0.009 and 0.008 respectively). Citalopram and venlafaxine appeared to be unaffected by any combination. Conclusion: The study provides a clear proof-of concept for
