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.

Abstract

Baxdrostat is a selective inhibitor of aldosterone synthase designed for the treatment of disorders associated with elevated aldosterone. This study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multiple ascending doses of baxdrostat in healthy volunteers. Subjects were randomized to receive oral baxdrostat (0.5, 1.5, 2.5, or 5.0 mg) or placebo once daily for 10 days and were placed on either a low-salt or normal-salt diet for the duration of the study. Blood samples were collected before and after dosing on days 1 and 10 to characterize pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Safety was assessed by adverse events, physical examinations, electrocardiograms, orthostatic vital signs, and clinical laboratory evaluations. Fifty-four subjects completed the study. There were no deaths or serious adverse events, and all treatment-emergent adverse events in subjects receiving baxdrostat were mild in severity. Plasma levels of baxdrostat increased proportionally with ascending doses, with peak concentrations observed within 4 h after dosing and a mean half-life of 26 to 31 h. A dose-dependent reduction of plasma aldosterone occurred with baxdrostat doses ≥1.5 mg, regardless of diet. Decreases in plasma aldosterone were sustained, with levels reduced by approximately 51 to 73% on day 10. Baxdrostat had no meaningful impact on plasma cortisol levels and resulted in mild dose-dependent decreases in plasma sodium levels and increases in potassium levels. Baxdrostat was safe and well tolerated with a half-life that supports once-daily dosing. The dose-dependent reduction in plasma aldosterone and lack of effect on cortisol demonstrate the selective blockade of aldosterone synthase.
