Effects of obesity and sex on antimicrobial pharmacokinetics and acute kidney injury: validation of a preclinical model.
Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Obese patients may be at a greater risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) with the use of certain antimicrobial agents that are dosed by weight. Current preclinical models of AKI utilize the male rat within a narrow weight range that limits extrapolation of the generated results. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics and AKI potential of gentamicin in 14-week-old diet-induced obesity-prone (n = 40) and obesity-resistant (n = 40) rats of both sexes. Single daily doses of gentamicin (12.5, 18.75, or 25 mg/kg of body weight) or saline (control) were administered intraperitoneally for 14 doses. Blood samples were collected after doses 1, 7, and 14, assayed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and analyzed using a nonparametric population pharmacokinetic approach for gentamicin. Urine was collected after doses 1, 3, and 5 and assayed for kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and normalized to creatinine (Cr) values. Histology was performed on all animals, and the degree of proximal tubular injury was graded. The mean (minimum, maximum) weight of the rats was 330 (136, 580) g. NGAL/Cr predicted AKI better than did KIM-1/Cr and was detectable in male rats after dose 1 and in obesity-prone female rats after dose 5. Proximal tubular injury by histology was significantly higher in male than in female rats. A significant relationship between the gentamicin area under the curve from zero to 24 hours (AUC(0-24)) estimates and the maximum NGAL/Cr ratio was observed. This preclinical model has the potential to aid with dose extrapolation for body size and improve assessment of the toxicology potential of antimicrobials in development.
