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

backgroundApixaban is a factor Xa inhibitor with a limited therapeutic index that belongs to the family of oral direct anticoagulants. The pharmacokinetic (PK) behavior of apixaban may be altered in elderly populations and populations with renal or hepatic impairment, necessitating dosage adjustments.

methodsThis study was conducted to examine how the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model describes the PKs of apixaban in adult and elderly populations and to determine the PKs of apixaban in elderly populations with renal and hepatic impairment. After PBPK models were constructed using the reported physicochemical properties of apixaban and clinical data, they were validated using data from clinical studies involving various dose ranges. Comparing predicted and observed blood concentration data and PK parameters was utilized to evaluate the model's fit performance.

resultsDoses should be reduced to approximately 70% of the healthy adult population for the healthy elderly population to achieve the same PK exposure; approximately 88%, 71%, and 89% of that for the elderly populations with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, respectively; and approximately 96%, 81%, and 58% of that for the Child Pugh-A, Child Pugh-B, and Child Pugh-C hepatic impairment elderly populations, respectively to achieve the same PK exposure.

conclusionThe findings indicate that the renal and hepatic function might be considered for apixaban therapy in Chinese elderly patients and the PBPK model can be used to optimize dosage regimens for specific populations.
