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

purposeAmong healthy Chinese subjects, two capsules of dabigatran etexilate were tested for bioequivalence.

methodFifty healthy subjects were recruited for each of the fasting and postprandial trials in a randomized, two-sequence, open-label, four-cycle, fully replicated trial design of a single 150 mg dose of either the test or the reference formulation of dabigatran etexilate capsules in the fasting and postprandial states. The blood concentration of dabigatran at different time points after administration was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The bioequivalence of the two formulations was evaluated by means of the main pharmacokinetic parameters and relative bioavailability.

resultsThere were 39 males and 11 females in both fasting and postprandial groups. The age, height, weight and BMI of subjects in the fasting group were 19.0-41.0 years old, 148.5-182.0 cm, 46.1-81.0 kg and 19.2-25.7 kg/m

conclusionThe 2 dabigatran etexilate capsules were bioequivalent in both fasting and postprandial states and had favorable safety profile.

trial registrationThe enrollment process in this study was finalized on the "Chemical Drug Bioequivalence Trial Record Information Platform." ( http://www.chinadrugtrials.org.cn , 04/07/2023, CTR20231968).
