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

Steady-state concentrations of telavancin, a novel, bactericidal lipoglycopeptide, were determined in the plasma, pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophages (AMs) of 20 healthy subjects. Telavancin at 10 mg of drug/kg of body weight/day was administered as a 1-h intravenous infusion on three successive days, with bronchoalveolar lavage performed on five subjects, each at 4, 8, 12, and 24 h after the last dose. Plasma samples were collected before the first and third infusions and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h after the third infusion. The plasma telavancin concentration-time profile was as reported previously. Telavancin (mean +/- standard deviation) penetrated well into ELF (3.73 +/- 1.28 microg/ml at 8 h and 0.89 +/- 1.03 microg/ml at 24 h) and extensively into AMs (19.0 +/- 16.8 microg/ml at 8 h, 45.0 +/- 22.4 microg/ml at 12 h, and 42.0 +/- 31.4 microg/ml at 24 h). Mean concentrations in AMs and plasma at 12 h were 45.0 microg/ml and 22.9 microg/ml (mean AM/plasma ratio, 1.93), respectively, and at 24 h were 42.0 microg/ml and 7.28 microg/ml (mean AM/plasma ratio, 6.67), respectively. Over the entire dosing interval, telavancin was present in ELF and AMs at concentrations up to 8-fold and 85-fold, respectively, above its MIC 90 for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (0.5 microg/ml). Pulmonary surfactant did not affect telavancin's in vitro antibacterial activity. Telavancin was well tolerated. These results support the proposal for further clinical evaluation of telavancin for treating gram-positive respiratory infections.
