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

In a standard situation, a quantitative systems pharmacology model describes a "reference patient," and the model parameters are fixed values allowing only the mean values to be described. However, the results of clinical trials include a description of variability in patients' responses to a drug, which is typically expressed in terms of conventional statistical parameters, such as standard deviations (SDs) from mean values. Therefore, in this study, we propose and compare four different approaches: (1) Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC); (2) model fitting to Monte Carlo sample; (3) population of clones; (4) stochastically bounded selection to generate virtual patient populations based on experimentally measured mean data and SDs. We applied these approaches to generate virtual patient populations in the QSP model of erythropoiesis. According to the results of our research, stochastically bounded selection showed slightly better results than the other three methods as it allowed the description of any number of patients from clinical trials and could be applied in the case of complex models with a large number of variable parameters.
