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 and Purpose: Nonclinical human cardiac new approach methodologies (NAMs), including human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) combined with multielectrode array (MEA) represent a highly predictive Methods: To generate the Results: The combination of cobicistat and moxifloxacin resulted in a concentration-dependent shortening of the corrected field potential duration (FPDcF) relative to both vehicle control and moxifloxacin alone. This effect was observed at near clinical Cmax concentrations of cobicistat and moxifloxacin. Evaluation of local extracellular action potentials (LEAP) revealed early afterdepolarizations (EADs) with supratherapeutic concentrations of moxifloxacin which were subsequently eliminated by the addition of cobicistat at therapeutic concentrations. Finally, the Comprehensive Conclusion: We conclude that cobicistat can attenuate moxifloxacin induced FPDcF prolongation at clinically relevant concentrations
