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

Ceftolozane is a new broad-spectrum cephalosporin and is combined with tazobactam to broaden the activity of ceftolozane against strains producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs). We determined the pharmacodynamics (PD) of the combination in the neutropenic mouse thigh model to determine the optimal exposure of tazobactam. Treatment of CD-1 neutropenic mice was started 2 h after infection with ceftolozane every 2 h (q2h) alone or in combination with tazobactam at different dosing frequencies for 24 h, and the number of CFU in the thighs was determined before and after treatment. The maximum effect model was fit to the dose-response and the pharmacokinetic/PD index (PDI)-response to determine the PDI values for ceftolozane alone and ceftolozane in combination with tazobactam resulting in a static effect and a 1-log kill. The effect of tazobactam was dependent on the percentage of time that the free drug concentration remained above the concentration threshold (percent [Formula: see text]), whereby dosing q2h was more efficacious than dosing every 8 h (q8h), reducing the tazobactam daily dose by a factor 6.9 to 59.0 (n = 3 strains) to obtain a static effect.
