Prolonged pharmacodynamic effects of S-0139, an intravenously administered endothelin A (ET) antagonist, in the human forearm blood flow model.

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.
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
aimsTo estimate the pharmacologically active dose range of a new investigational compound S-0139, a selective endothelin A (ET(A)) receptor antagonist, in man, and to examine the duration of its pharmacodynamic effect.
methodsVenous occlusion plethysmography was performed to assess changes in forearm blood flow following intra-brachial administration of endothelin-1 (ET-1). ET(A) antagonists have been shown to block ET-1-induced vasoconstriction in this model. The study was conducted in three parts: (1) a pilot study to explore dose-response (dose range 0.08-13.33 microg kg(-1) min(-1)), (2) a randomized study to confirm dose-response (placebo, 2.5, 6.67 and 15 microg kg(-1) min(-1)), and (3) a delayed administration study (15.7 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) to explore the duration of the pharmacodynamic effect. In all studies a 3-h infusion of S-0139 was given and during the last 90 min of the infusion, ET-1 was infused concurrently for 90 min. In study (3) a second ET-1 infusion was given starting 3 h after completion of the first.
resultsIntravenously administered S-0139 resulted in significant inhibition of ET-1-induced vasoconstriction in the forearm (plasma concentration 800-2000 ng ml(-1)). In the delayed administration study, the same extent of inhibition was still present when ET-1 was administered 3 h after the end of infusion of S-0139, even though the S-0139 plasma concentrations (mean 17 ng ml(-1)) were well below pharmacologically active concentrations as determined in studies 1 and 2.
conclusionsS-0139 dose-dependently blocks ET-1-mediated vasoconstriction in the forearm and has a prolonged duration of effect beyond that expected from its pharmacokinetic profile.
