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

The basic law in nephropharmacology states that pharmacokinetic parameters depend linearly on renal function. Few exceptions to linear dependence have been reported, e.g. substances with saturable tubular reabsorption or secretion. A further example is cyclosporin, which was found to be eliminated according to log-concave nonlinear kinetics in 3 patients with hepatotoxicity after kidney transplantation. The nonlinear cyclosporin kinetics were computer-fitted to the integrated forms of the 1-exp function and the Michaelis-Menten equation by nonlinear regression analysis. The same maximal velocity (Vmax = 23 ng ml-1 h-1) and Michaelis constant (Km = 686 ng ml-1) were calculated for cyclosporin when applying either the 1-exp function or the Michaelis-Menten equation. The nonlinear elimination of cyclosporin, however, was described even more closely by the 1-exp function than by the Michaelis-Menten equation.
