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 assessment of the efficacy of antiseizure medications (ASMs) in animal models of acute seizures has played a critical role in these drugs' success in clinical trials for human epilepsy. One of the most widely used animal models for this purpose is the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) model. While there are numerous published reports on the efficacy of conventional ASMs in MES models, there is a need to expand the understanding on the brain concentrations that are needed to achieve optimal levels of efficacy in this model. We assessed the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profiles of six ASMs, namely carbamazepine (CBZ), phenytoin (PHT), valproic acid (VPA), lacosamide (LSM), cenobamate (CNB), and retigabine (RTG), using MES models in mice and rats.
