Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Voriconazole in Children from a Tertiary Care Center in China.

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
Voriconazole is a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal and the first-line treatment for invasive aspergillosis (IA). The aim of this research was to study the dose adjustments of voriconazole as well as the affecting factors influencing voriconazole trough concentrations in Asian children to optimize its daily administration. Clinical data were analyzed of inpatients 2 to 14 years old who were subjected to voriconazole trough concentration monitoring from 1 June 2015 to 1 December 2017. A total of 138 voriconazole trough concentrations from 42 pediatric patients were included. Voriconazole trough concentrations at steady state ranged from 0.02 to 9.35 mg/liter, with high inter- and intraindividual variability. Only 50.0% of children achieved the target range (1.0 to 5.5 mg/liter) at initial dosing, while 35.7% of children were subtherapeutic, and 14.3% of children were supratherapeutic at initial dosing. There was no correlation between initial trough concentrations and initial dosing. A total of 28.6% of children (12/42) received an adjusted dose according to trough concentrations. Children <6, 6 to 12, and >12 years old required a median oral maintenance dose to achieve the target range of 11.1, 7.2, and 5.3 mg/kg twice daily, respectively (
