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

Background: China is undergoing a pronounced shift towards an aging society, wherein the elderly constitute a prominent demographic relying significantly on medications. The imperative of administering rational medication to the elderly has gained considerable importance and warrants focused attention. The availability of pharmacokinetic (PK) data specific to the elderly is paramount for supporting informed medication practices. Unfortunately, studies addressing PK in the elderly are both infrequent and intricate, contributing to a lack of crucial data essential for tailoring personalized and rational medication approaches. Methods: This study aimed to address this deficiency by employing the Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model, with the goal of supplying critical data to support rational medication strategies for the elderly. Additionally, we extended the application of PBPK models to Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) through the examination of four neuropsychiatric drugs. Results: The PBPK models for 50 drugs in young and middle-aged Chinese adults were validated using clinical trial data. Simulated concentration-time curves closely matched the observed data, with C Conclusion: In conclusion, PBPK models for 50 commonly prescribed drugs within the Chinese elderly population were developed, tackling general data gaps associated with these specific medications. Medication plans were developed specifically tailored for the elderly population, presenting an alternative methodology and perspective for the implementation of individualized and rational medication practices.
