Rivaroxaban Pharmacokinetics in Obese Subjects: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Clinical pharmacokinetics, 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
introductionVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The direct oral anticoagulants, including rivaroxaban, are relatively novel therapeutic options in the treatment and prevention of VTE. There is a conflicting and inconclusive evidence surrounding the pharmacokinetics (PK) of rivaroxaban in patients with VTE who are obese.
objectivesWe conducted a systematic review to provide an overview, and to synthesize the available evidence in the current literature pertaining to rivaroxaban PK in obese subjects who are healthy or diseased.
methodsThe PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Rayyan, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched from 1 May 2021 through 28 February 2022. Studies investigating rivaroxaban PK in adult obese subjects were included in the review. Pertinent data, including anthropometric parameters, rivaroxaban dosage regimen, PK parameters, PK model, and outcome measures were extracted. Reference values of rivaroxaban PK parameters in the general population were used for comparison purposes. The review protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42020177770).
resultsIn the 11 studies included in this systematic review, over 7140 healthy or diseased subjects received rivaroxaban therapy, with varying clinical indications in the diseased population. The reported PK parameters of rivaroxaban in obese subjects compared with reference values in the general population were variable. The reported values of the volume of distribution (V
conclusionVariable changes and inconsistencies in different rivaroxaban PK parameters were reported in obese subjects. Further well-designed studies are warranted to better characterize the PK and clinical outcomes of rivaroxaban in subjects with obesity.
