Raised tacrolimus level and acute renal injury associated with acute gastroenteritis in a child receiving local rectal tacrolimus.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Local rectal application of tacrolimus in distal colitis, pouchitis and perianal Crohn's disease has previously been reported to be both effective and safe. We report a patient treated with per rectum local application of tacrolimus, who developed toxic levels of tacrolimus and acute renal injury during an episode of acute gastroenteritis. This case illustrates that local application of tacrolimus, although usually safe, may be associated with significantly raised tacrolimus levels and acute renal injury during acute gastroenteritis. It is important for physicians to be aware of this association when prescribing local rectal tacrolimus.
