Pharmacokinetic study on the effect of ligustrazine-tangeretin co-administration on the pharmacokinetics of ligustrazine and its potential mechanism in rats.

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
Both ligustrazine and tangeretin are usually prescribed in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, which makes their co-administration possible. The investigation of the interaction between ligustrazine and tangeretin is necessary for the clinical compatibility of their source herbs. This study aimed to investigate the interaction of ligustrazine and tangeretin during their co-administration. The pharmacokinetics of ligustrazine (15 mg/kg) was investigated in the presence of 50, 100, and 150 mg/kg tangeretin in rats with six of each. A single dose of ligustrazine was set as the control. The effect of tangeretin on the in vitro metabolic stability of ligustrazine was also investigated in rat liver microsomes. Tangeretin significantly reduced the system exposure of ligustrazine under all experimental concentrations. Specifically, tangeretin reduced the AUC (from 48.86 ± 12.57 to 41.02 ± 4.85 (50 mg/kg tangeretin), 31.47 ± 5.26 (100 mg/kg tangeretin), and 27.55 ± 9.60 (150 mg/kg) μg/mL × h), MRT (from 7.05 ± 0.26 to 6.33 ± 0.48, 5.53 ± 0.68, and 5.21 ± 1.31 h), C
