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: Dosing of intravenous protein C concentrate (Ceprotin) in patients with protein C deficiency is guided by pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma protein C activity. Objectives: This study aimed to characterize PK of intravenous Ceprotin in patients with severe congenital protein C deficiency (SCPCD) and severe acquired protein C deficiency (SAPCD). Methods: An exploratory analysis was conducted to assess effects of demographic and disease-related factors on PK of Ceprotin ( Results: Age, body weight, and symptomatic state of disease appeared to influence PK of Ceprotin, including endogenous production of (active) protein C. Model-based simulations predicted that after the first doses, 15% to 76% of patients in the 3-stage dosing scenarios (initial dose: 60-120 IU/kg) and 15% of patients in the 1-stage dosing scenario (60 IU/kg every 12 hours) would attain the recommended target Conclusion: Age, body weight, and symptomatic disease state should be considered in dose optimization. Model-based simulations support the use of various combined loading and maintenance regimens to quickly and effectively achieve target protein C plasma levels.
