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

backgroundPharmacogenetics (PGx), especially in regard to CYP2D6, is gaining more importance in routine clinical settings. Including phenoconversion effects (PC) in result interpretation could maximize its potential benefits. However, studies on genetics of pharmacokinetic genes including the functional enzyme status are lacking.

aimThe retrospective analyses of clinical routine data aimed to investigating how the CYP2D6 functional enzyme status affects serum concentrations and metabolite-to-parent ratios of seven common psychotropic drugs and allows an evaluation of the relevance of this information for patient care.

methodTwo patient cohorts (total n = 316; 44.2 ± 15.4 years) were investigated for the CYP2D6 functional enzyme status and its associations with drug exposure and metabolism of venlafaxine, amitriptyline, mirtazapine, sertraline, escitalopram, risperidone and quetiapine.

resultsWe found an increase in intermediate and poor metabolizers, as well as a decrease in normal metabolizers of CYP2D6 when including PC. Moreover, we found associations between amitriptyline exposure with the phenoconversion-corrected activity score of CYP2D6 (Spearman correlation; p = 0.03), and risperidone exposure with CYP2D6 functional enzyme status (Kruskal-Wallis test; p = 0.01), as well as between metabolite-to-parent ratio of venlafaxine and risperidone with CYP2D6 functional enzyme status (Kruskal-Wallis test; p < 0.001; p = 0.05).

conclusionThe data stress the relevance of PC-informed PGx in psychopharmacological treatment and suggest that PC should be included in PGx result interpretation when PGx is implemented in routine clinical care, especially before initiating amitriptyline- or risperidone-treatment, to start with a dose adequate to the respective CYP2D6 functional enzyme status. Moreover, PGx and therapeutic drug monitoring should be used complementary but not alternatively.
