Therapeutic Salivary Monitoring of Perampanel in Patients with Epilepsy Using a Volumetric Absorptive Microsampling Technique.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 objective of this study was to validate a novel assay using the volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) technique combined with liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the determination of the antiseizure medication perampanel in saliva and its clinical applicability in patients with epilepsy. VAMS tips were loaded with 30 μL of saliva and dried for 60 min. Analytes were extracted with methanol. The supernatant was evaporated under a gentle stream of nitrogen and reconstituted with 60 μL of methanol. Separation and quantification were achieved on a monolithic column connected to a mass spectrometer. Calibration curves were linear between 0.5 and 300 ng/mL. Intra- and inter-day accuracy was within 85.6-103.2% and intra-day and inter-day precision did not exceed 12.1%. Perampanel was stable in samples collected by VAMS and stored under different storage conditions. The VAMS-LC-MS/MS method was validated according to internationally accepted criteria and tested in patients with epilepsy who were receiving a combination of perampanel and other antiseizure medications. The method showed adequate bioanalytical performances, holding great potential as an alternative strategy to support domiciliary TDM in patients with epilepsy treated with perampanel according to the simplicity of sample collection.
