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 aim of this study was to assess the frequency of potential drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) and adverse drug events (ADEs) associated with antimycotics in hospitalized patients with hematopoietic SCT (HSCT). Of the 120 HSCT recipients evaluated, 36 received antimycotics. A total of 124 ADEs were recorded in 32 of the 36 patients treated, with 54 ADEs being possibly and 9 probably related to antimycotics. Of the treatments with amphotericin B, 93% were associated with one or more possible and 36% with probable ADEs. The corresponding figures for lipid-based amphotericin B were 100% and 7%, for voriconazole 68% and 11% and for caspofungin 70% and 0%. A total of 57 potentially severe DDIs associated with antimycotics were detected in 31 of the 36 patients. Of these, 14 DDIs were a possible cause of an ADE and 5 (4 times a combination of voriconazole with CYA and once a combination of CYA with conventional amphotericin B) were probably related. Although the prevalence of pDDIs and ADEs is high in HSCT patients, ADEs related with a high probability to treatment with antimycotics are rare. Regarding the high prevalence of pDDIs, our findings underscore the importance of close monitoring of laboratory and clinical parameters, as well as dose adjustment for critical drugs, in patients with HSCT.
