Review in Clinical pharmacokinetics, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Tuberculosis is re-emerging in patients with altered immune status, such as those with chronic renal failure. Clinicians should thus be aware of the pharmacokinetics and dosage adjustment of antitubercular drugs in patients with renal insufficiency. Among patients with renal insufficiency, those who are dialysed should be treated with special care. Indeed, dosage should always be closely adjusted in these patients and potential removal by dialysis must be taken into account. However reliable the dosage adjustment recommendations are for these drugs in patients with renal failure, further pharmacokinetic investigations need to be performed, especially in dialysis patients in whom the influence of haemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis on drug pharmacokinetics needs to be detailed. In the meantime, it could be generally advised to administer all antitubercular drugs after the haemodialysis session, even though some drugs are known to be non-dialysable.
