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

objectiveVoriconazole as a triazole antifungal agent is widely used for prophylaxis or treatment of fungal infections in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It can increase blood concentrations of other medications including cyclosporine A (CsA) which are substrates for cytochrome P450 3A4. The aim of this study was to evaluate comparatively the interaction between oral/intravenous (IV) voriconazole and oral CsA.

methodsTwenty-nine recipients of allogeneic HSCT who had been already on a steady dose of CsA and were started on oral or IV voriconazole were evaluated in a prospective cohort study. Blood concentration of CsA was determined before and 5-8 days after voriconazole initiation. Plasma concentration of voriconazole was measured in steady state. The changes in blood concentration of CsA after administration of voriconazole were evaluated.

findingsThe concentration/dose (C/D) ratio of CsA increased significantly (

conclusionThere was a significant intrapatient variability in the magnitude of CsA blood concentration increment after voriconazole initiation. We also demonstrated that magnitude of drug interaction did not differ in IV and oral voriconazole administration. Furthermore, we found that the magnitude of drug interaction was correlated with plasma concentration of voriconazole.
