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

Objective: To develop a rapid, sensitive, and high-throughput liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for prazosin quantification in human plasma, validate its application in bioequivalence studies, and investigate sex-specific pharmacokinetic differences in a Chinese population. Materials and methods: Plasma samples were processed by protein precipitation with methanol and analyzed using a Waters ACQUITY UPLC Results: The method demonstrated excellent linearity (0.1000-30.00 ng/mL, LLOQ: 0.1000 ng/mL), surpassing the sensitivity of prior methods. Bioequivalence analysis confirmed that the 90% confidence interval (CI) for AUC Conclusion: This study establishes the first LC-MS/MS method integrating isotopic IS and sex-specific pharmacokinetic profiling for prazosin, offering regulatory-compliant bioequivalence validation and insights into precision dosing strategies. These findings support China's generic drug policy and highlight the need for sex-stratified pharmacokinetic evaluations in bioequivalence assessments. Clinical trial registration number: ChiCTR2100050626.
