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.

Abstract

backgroundDPP-4 inhibitors are a class of oral hypoglycemic drugs commonly used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Fultagliptin benzoate is a novel and high-selective DPP-4 inhibitor. The renal excretion of many medications, including DPP-4 inhibitors, can be altered in patients with renal impairment. This study investigates the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of fultagliptin benzoate tablets in mild and moderate renal impairment (RI) compared with normal renal function to ensure safety and efficacy across these groups.

methodsA single-dose, non-randomized, open-label, and parallel-control phase I study was performed. Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of fultagliptin benzoate tablets were evaluated.

resultsA total of 18 participants were enrolled and completed the study. After oral administration of a single dose of fultagliptin benzoate tablets 12 mg under fasted conditions, fultagliptin was absorbed with median time to reach peak concentration (T

conclusionIn patients with mild RI, the small increase in exposure to fultagliptin was not considered clinically relevant. Although a significant increase in exposure was observed in patients with moderate RI without eliciting issues related to efficacy and safety, a half-dose reduction may be considered for the protection of participants.
