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

purposeCombined intravenous and intraventricular administration of vancomycin into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been increasingly utilized for neurosurgical patients, but little is known about the population pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in the plasma and CSF. The aim of our study was to identify significant factors associated with plasma and CSF vancomycin concentrations to guide clinicians with vancomycin dosing.

methodsPatients with an indwelling ventricular drainage catheter who received intravenous and intraventricular vancomycin were enrolled in this study. Blood and CSF samples were collected at scheduled times and vancomycin concentrations determined. A three-compartmental model (central, peripheral and CSF compartments) was proposed to describe the in vivo behavior of vancomycin. CSF outflow resulted in vancomycin loss, and the clearance of CSF compartment (CL

resultsSerum creatinine clearance had a significant influence on clearance of the central compartment. CL

conclusionsThe proposed final model may be used to guide clinicians with vancomycin dosing in this specific patient population.
