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

Erythropoiesis is a complex process that results in the production of erythrocytes from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. This work aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) model describing erythropoiesis and hemoglobin synthesis following bitopertin, an inhibitor of glycine transporter 1 (GlyT1), administration. Data from a Phase 1 clinical trial in 67 healthy subjects administered bitopertin (10, 30, or 60 mg) or placebo for 120 days were analyzed. Hematological assessments included erythrocyte and reticulocyte counts, immature reticulocyte fraction, hemoglobin concentration, and mean corpuscular hemoglobin. The proposed semi-mechanistic model, which leverages data and physiological knowledge, was found to adequately simultaneously describe the dose- and time-dependent changes in the biomarkers. The framework was used to illustrate the potential outcome of hypothetical drug-target interactions at distinct stages of erythropoiesis and hemoglobin synthesis, exemplifying its usefulness in a clinical setting.
