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

purposeTo study the effect of experimental diabetes and arthritis on the pharmacokinetics of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) enantiomers in rats.

methodsThe pharmacokinetic studies were carried out following administration of 40 mg/kg of racemic HCQ to diabetic, insulin-treated diabetic, adjuvant arthritic and control rats.

resultsRenal (70% and 62% for R- and S-HCQ, respectively) and non-renal clearance (100% and 145% for R- and S-HCQ, respectively) of HCQ enantiomers were significantly increased in diabetic rats. Diabetes-induced alterations in the disposition of HCQ were reversed by insulin treatment. In arthritic rats, systemic clearance (CL) of HCQ enantiomers was significantly reduced (1.05 +/- 0.15 and 1.3 +/- 0.19 l/h/kg for R- and S-HCQ, respectively) compared to controls (1.69 +/- 0.32 and 1.93 +/- 0.34 l/h/kg for R- and S-HCQ, respectively). The fraction unbound of the R- and S-HCQ were 49.4% and 50.5% lower in platelet rich plasma of arthritic rats compared to healthy rats. Increased blood concentrations of HCQ enantiomers in arthritic rats were significantly related to the degree of inflammation.

conclusionsDiabetes significantly increased the CL of both R- and S-HCQ by increasing renal and non-renal clearance. Arthritis caused a significant decrease in CL of HCQ enantiomers through increased binding and a decreased intrinsic clearance. The effect of the diseases on the pharmacokinetics of HCQ, however, was not stereoselective.
