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

In March 2015, the extended-spectrum triazole antifungal isavuconazole was granted approval by the US Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis and mucormycosis. Isavuconaozle has activity against a broad range of yeasts, dimorphic fungi, and molds and is associated with fewer toxicities than voriconazole. It also has predictable pharmacokinetics in adults, fewer drug-drug interactions than many existing antifungal agents, and is available in both oral and β-cyclodextrin-free intravenous formulations. In this review, we explore what is known about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of isavuconazole and look ahead to its expanding applications in clinical practice.
