The effect of renal impairment and obesity on anti-Xa peak and trough levels in patients receiving therapeutic doses of nadroparin: a comparison with control patients.

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
purposeAnti-Xa peak level monitoring is recommended during LMWH treatment in renal impairment or obesity. The trough level has been proposed as marker for bleeding. We studied the influence of renal impairment and obesity on anti-Xa levels.
methodsPeak and trough levels were collected during therapeutic nadroparin treatment in patients with renal impairment, obese patients, and controls. 27 patients (n = 68 samples) were evaluated and combined with published data (n = 319 samples from 35 patients) using population pharmacokinetic (popPK) modelling.
resultsMedian peak level was 0.44 and 0.95 IU/mL in renal impairment with and without dose reduction and 0.60 and 0.43 IU/mL in obesity and controls, respectively. Trough levels were < 0.5 IU/mL in all patients with renal impairment with dose reduction and in 5/6 control patients. In the popPK model, total body weight and eGFR were covariates for clearance and lean body weight for distribution volume. Model-based evaluations demonstrated peak levels below the therapeutic window in controls and increased levels in renal impairment. Dose reductions resulted in a different effect on peak and trough levels. Obese patients (BMI up to 32 kg/m
conclusionIn renal impairment, anti-Xa peak levels after dose reduction are comparable to those in controls. Weight-based dosing is suitable for obese patients. Aiming for peak levels between 0.6 and 1.0 IU/mL in these patients would result in overexposure compared to controls. Considering the association of trough levels and bleeding risk and our findings, trough monitoring seems to be a suitable parameter to identify nadroparin accumulation.
