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

The effect of moderate hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of the dual endothelin receptor antagonist aprocitentan was clinically investigated as 25% of aprocitentan is cleared through the liver. Aprocitentan is in clinical development for the treatment of resistant hypertension. This was an open-label, Phase 1 study. Subjects were recruited in two groups (i.e., moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B; n = 8) and matched healthy subjects (n = 9) and received a single oral dose of 25 mg aprocitentan. Thereafter, they were observed for 14 days. Due to personal reasons one healthy subject discontinued the study. The PK of aprocitentan were similar between subjects with moderate hepatic impairment and healthy subjects, with maximum plasma concentrations (C
