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

purposeLepiota brunneoincarnata is a well-known poisonous mushroom and is responsible for fatal mushroom poisoning cases worldwide. α-Amanitin and β-amanitin are the main amatoxin compounds of Lepiota brunneoincarnata. However, there are no published toxicokinetic studies of Lepiota brunneoincarnata. To study the toxicokinetics of Lepiota brunneoincarnata, we developed an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for determination of α-amanitin and β-amanitin in rat plasma.

methodsUPLC-MS/MS analyses were performed with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer in positive-ion mode. The sensitivity of α-amanitin and β-amanitin detection was increased by inhibiting the production of [M + Na]

resultsThe linear ranges were 3.0-3000 ng/mL for α-amanitin and 1.8-1800 ng/mL for β-amanitin with a correlation coefficient r > 0.99 for both analytes. The lower limit of quantification of 3.0 ng/mL for α-amanitin and 1.8 ng/mL for β-amanitin was achieved using only 50 μL of rat plasma. The accuracy of α-amanitin and β-amanitin was between - 9.5 and 7.0% with the precision ranged from 2.2 to 12.5%. The developed method was then applied for Lepiota brunneoincarnata toxicokinetic study after intravenous administration of Lepiota brunneoincarnata extracts.

conclusionsEstablishing UPLC-MS/MS method for quantifying amanitines in rat plasma successfully enabled toxicokinetic study of Lepiota brunneoincarnata extracts.
