Systemic and Brain Pharmacokinetics of Milnacipran in Mice: Comparison of Intraperitoneal and Intravenous Administration.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Milnacipran is a dual serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, clinically used for the treatment of major depression or fibromyalgia. Currently, there are no studies reporting the pharmacokinetics (PK) of milnacipran after intraperitoneal (IP) injection, despite this being the primary administration route in numerous experimental studies using the drug. Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the PK profile of IP-administered milnacipran in mice and compare it to the intravenous (IV) route. First a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated to accurately quantify milnacipran in biological samples. The method was used to quantify milnacipran in blood and brain samples collected at various time-points post-administration. Non-compartmental and PK analyses were employed to determine key PK parameters. The maximum concentration (C
