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 growing number of infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens has prompted a more rational use of available antibiotics given the paucity of new, effective agents. Monte Carlo simulations were utilized to determine the appropriateness of several doripenem dosing regimens based on the probability of attaining the critical drug exposure metric of time that drug concentrations remain above the drug MIC (T>MIC) for 35% (and lower thresholds) of the dosing interval in >80 to 90% of the population (T>MIC 35% target). This exposure level generally correlates with in vivo efficacy for carbapenems. In patients with creatinine clearance of >50 ml/min, a 500-mg dose of doripenem infused over 1 h every 8 h is expected to be effective against bacilli with doripenem MICs of < or =1 microg/ml based on a T>MIC 35% target and MICs of < or =2 microg/ml based on lower targets. A longer, 4-hour infusion time improved target attainment in most cases, such that the T>MIC was adequate for pathogens with doripenem MICs as high as 4 microg/ml. Efficacy is expected for infections caused by pathogens with doripenem MICs of < or =2 microg/ml in patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance, 30 to 50 ml/min) who receive doripenem at 250 mg infused over 1 h every 8 h and in patients with severe impairment (creatinine clearance between 10 and 29 ml/min) who receive doripenem at 250 mg, infused over 1 h or 4 h, every 12 h. Results of pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) modeling can guide dose optimization, thereby potentially increasing the clinical efficacy of doripenem against serious Gram-negative bacterial infections.
