Species Differences in Ezetimibe Glucuronidation.

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
backgroundPeclinical and clinical studies have revealed that ezetimibe, an approved cholesterol-absorption inhibitor, is rapidly and extensively metabolized to a more potent metabolite, ezetimibe glucuronide. Since different species are commonly used in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies of ezetimibe, it is essential to determine the species difference in glucuronidation of ezetimibe in order to accurately evaluate ezetimibe's pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The purpose of the study was to compare species differences in ezetimibe glucuronidation rates using intestinal microsomes from humans, rats, mice, monkeys, and dogs.
methodIntestinal microsomes from different species were used to assess the ezetimibe glucuronidation rates. Multiple substrate concentrations at 0.5, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 µM were tested and fitted into the Michaelis-Menten model to determine the enzyme kinetic parameters.
resultsThe results showed that the glucuronidation rates with these tested species were significantly different. Kinetic studies revealed that the maximum metabolic rate (V
conclusionsThe study revealed that the rate of ezetimibe glucuronidation in the intestine was different in different species and has an impact on ezetimibe glucuronidation in the intestine. When analyzing the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, or toxicology of ezetimibe using different models, these species differences must be taken into consideration.
