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

Objectives: This study aimed to perform a population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis for rivaroxaban in real-world patients with pulmonary embolism for personalized medication. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted, and 187 eligible patients were included in this study. The analyses were executed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling, and Monte Carlo simulations were used to obtain individualized dose adjustment strategies. Results: A total of 517 rivaroxaban plasma concentrations and 376 prothrombin time assays were used for model development. The pharmacokinetic parameters were adequately described using an oral 1-compartment model with first-order adsorption and elimination. The pharmacodynamic model revealed a linear relationship between rivaroxaban plasma concentrations and prothrombin time. The estimated typical values of Ka, V/F, and CL/F were 1.25/h, 53.0 L, and 6.13 L/h, respectively. The creatinine clearance and age were identified as covariates for the rivaroxaban pharmacokinetic profiles. Simulation results showed that patients with moderate renal impairment exhibited an ∼30% increase in rivaroxaban exposure, and that a low dose of 15 mg every day made their exposure similar to that of patients with normal renal function at 20 mg every day. Conclusion: The developed population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model can provide individualized dosing strategies for Chinese patients with pulmonary embolism. A lower dose is recommended for patients with moderate renal impairment to avoid overexposure and bleeding events.
