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.
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
Warfarin dosing guided by INR fails to account for pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic variability, leading to suboptimal outcomes; genetic and clinical factors, such as VKORC1 polymorphism and comorbidities, could refine dosing strategies and improve anticoagulation safety. The aim of this was to identify the main determinants of INR variability in Mexican patients under long-term anticoagulation therapy. For this purpose, patients undergoing warfarin treatment were included and a clinical data was retrieved from medical record. A bioanalytical HPLC method to quantify warfarin (CPW) and its primary metabolite, 7-OH warfarin (CP7OH), in plasma samples was standardized and validated. INR variability was assessed in relation to Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), warfarin dose, drug interactions, vitamin K intake, CPW, CP7OH, metabolic ratio, and VKORC1 1693 polymorphism using univariate and multivariate analysis. The results showed that among 22 patients (64% women) with atrial fibrillation and aortic-mitral valve replacement, warfarin dosing ranged from 8.75 to 55 mg/week (median: 22.5 mg/week). Over half (68.2%) did not achieve the therapeutic INR goal (2.0-3.5). VKORC1 1693 genotype frequencies were GG (36%), GA (50%), and AA (14%), with AA carriers requiring lower maintenance doses (p<0.01). Multivariate analysis incorporating CCI, CPW and CP7OH explained up to 70% of INR variability (p<0.01). Furthermore, currently reported dosing algorithms showed limited accuracy in predicting the appropriate warfarin dose in this cohort. Overall, INR variability depends on plasma warfarin levels, metabolite concentration, and key comorbidities. Therefore, tailored population models are essential to optimize anticoagulation therapy in Mexico. This research highlights the need for more inclusive studies incorporating genetic and clinical factors to refine warfarin dosing and improve outcomes.
