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

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease with only one oral treatment option. DNDI-6148 is an orally bioavailable compound with potent antiparasitic activity in preclinical studies. Establishing skin target-site pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationships is essential to enable its clinical development. The objective was to characterize the target-site PK and PD of DNDI-6148 in a murine L. major model and to predict a human efficacious dose. A nonlinear mixed-effects PK/PD model was developed using data from L. major-infected BALB/c mice orally administered DNDI-6148 (6.25-50 mg/kg, bid). The murine PD components and skin distribution characteristics were used jointly with allometrically scaled human PK parameters to predict a clinically efficacious dose. DNDI-6148 PK in mice was described by a one-compartment model with dose-dependent bioavailability, saturable clearance, and a skin-to-plasma ratio of 0.56 [95% CI, 0.49-0.68] for both infected and non-infected skin. Parasite clearance at the infection site followed a sigmoidal E
