An In Silico Approach toward the Appropriate Absorption Rate Metric in Bioequivalence.
Article in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
In bioequivalence, the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) is traditionally used as a metric for the absorption rate, despite the fact that there are several concerns. The idea of "average slope" (AS) was recently introduced as an alternative metric to reflect absorption rate. This study aims to further extend the previous findings and apply an in silico approach to investigate the kinetic sensitivity of AS and Cmax. This computational analysis was applied to the C-t data of hydrochlorothiazide, donepezil, and amlodipine, which exhibit different absorption kinetics. Principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to uncover the relationships between all bioequivalence metrics. Monte Carlo simulations of bioequivalence trials were performed to investigate sensitivity. The appropriate programming codes were written in Python for the PCA and in MATLAB
