Evaluating
Review in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Mechanistic models of hepatic clearance have been evaluated for more than 50 years, with the first author of this mini-review serving as a co-author of the first paper proposing such a model. However, published quality experimental data are only consistent with the first of these models, designated as the well-stirred model, despite the universal recognition that this model is physiologically unrepresentative of what occurs with respect to liver metabolism and transport. Within the last 3 years, our laboratory has recognized that it is possible to derive clearance equations employing the concepts of Kirchhoff's Laws from physics, independent of the differential equation approach that has been utilized to derive reaction rates in chemistry. Here we review our published studies showing that the equation previously believed to be the well-stirred model, when hepatic basolateral transporters are not clinically relevant, is in fact the general equation for hepatic clearance when only systemic drug concentrations are measured, explaining why all experimental data fit this equation. To demonstrate that the equations deriving the mechanistic models of hepatic elimination for the past 50 years are not valid, we show that when calculating Kp
