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

Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models can be challenging to work with because they can have too many parameters to identify from observable data. The profile likelihood method can help solve this issue by determining parameter identifiability and confidence intervals, but it involves repetitive parameter optimizations that can be time-consuming. The Cluster Gauss-Newton method (CGNM) is a parameter estimation method that efficiently searches through a wide range of parameter space. In this study, we propose a method that approximates the profile likelihood by reusing intermediate computation results from CGNM, allowing us to obtain the upper bounds of the profile likelihood without conducting additional model evaluation. This method allows us to quickly draw approximate profile likelihoods for all unknown parameters. Additionally, the same approach can be used to draw two-dimensional profile likelihoods for all parameter combinations within seconds. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this method on three PBPK models.
