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

Introduction: Hyperphosphatemia in patients undergoing dialysis is not well-controlled. AP306 is a pan-inhibitor of phosphate transporters, designed to block the active uptake of phosphate through the gastrointestinal tract. Methods: In this phase 2 randomized, active-controlled, open-label study, hemodialysis patients with serum phosphate between 5.5 and 9.0 mg/dl were randomized to receive either AP306 or sevelamer carbonate for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the change in serum phosphate levels from baseline until the therapy ceased. AP306 was initiated at 75 mg and adjusted stepwise to 125 mg and 150 mg orally thrice daily every 4 weeks, to maintain serum phosphate between 3.5 and 5.5 mg/dl. Sevelamer levels were adjusted using the same criteria and frequency. Results: A total of 27 patients were randomized to receive AP306 and 28 to receive sevelamer. At the end-of-treatment, both AP306 and sevelamer resulted in a significant decrease from baseline in serum phosphate by 2.51 mg/dl (95% confidence interval [CI]:-3.07 to -1.92; Conclusion: AP306 monotherapy significantly reduced serum phosphate levels and substantially improved the serum phosphate control rate in hemodialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia. AP306 was safe and well-tolerated.
