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

introductionPharmacokinetic differences between long-acting injectable antipsychotic (LAI) formulations, combined with a lack of clinical switch studies, contribute to clinician uncertainty when transitioning between LAIs. This analysis employed a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) modeling approach to characterize dosing conversions and switching strategies from intramuscular paliperidone palmitate once monthly (PP1m) to TV-46000, a long-acting subcutaneous formulation of risperidone, once monthly (q1m), with a secondary analysis of PP1m to TV-46000 every 2 months (q2m).

methodsFor PP1m and TV-46000, concentration-time profiles for paliperidone and TV-46000 total active moiety (TAM; risperidone + paliperidone) were simulated on the basis of published popPK models with virtual populations of 5000 patients. TAM exposure following oral administration served as a comparison benchmark.

resultsWhen switching from PP1m 234 mg at steady state (comparable to 6 mg/day oral risperidone), the most comparable switch involved initiating TV-46000 125 mg q1m 4 weeks after the last PP1m dose. Ratios of TV-46000 to PP1m for maximum, minimum, and average plasma concentration (C

conclusionSwitching to TV-46000 125 mg q1m 4 weeks after the last PP1m 234-mg injection yielded generally comparable pharmacokinetic parameters at steady state. The same was true for other TV-46000 q1m or q2m dosages and equivalent dosages of PP1m. Clinician discretion will ultimately determine how to switch on the basis of factors such as patient preference, convenience, and concerns about tolerability or symptom breakthrough.
