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

Introduction: This study aimed to develop population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) models of tiapride based on plasma and saliva concentration in pediatric patients with tic disorders (TD) and evaluate the feasibility of non-invasive therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for precision dosing. Methods: A prospective study was conducted in 38 TD patients aged 5-15 years. PopPK models of tiapride were sequentially developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Monte Carlo simulation was employed to optimize dosing regimens, and Bayesian maximum a posteriori (MAP) was applied to facilitate model-informed precision dosing (MIPD). The predictive performance of the established model was internally evaluated using saliva concentration. Results: The PopPK model of tiapride using plasma concentration was best described by a one-compartment structure model. The typical estimates of the absorption rate constant (Ka), plasma clearance (CL/F), and volume of distribution (V/F) were 0.219 h Conclusion: The PopPK models of tiapride enable MIPD in children and adolescents with TD and support saliva as a non-invasive matrix for TDM. Further prospective validation in independent pediatric cohorts is warranted before routine clinical implementation.
