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

purpose of reviewAntiepileptic drugs are frequently administered to patients with HIV infection or in recipients of organ transplants. The potentially serious drug-drug interactions between the "classic" antiepileptic drugs, antiretrovirals, and immunosuppressants have been extensively studied. Evidence-based information on the second and third generation of antiepileptic drugs is almost non-existent. The purpose of this review is to analyze the pharmacokinetic profile of these newer agents to assess their potential for drug interactions with antiretrovirals and immunosuppressants. RECENT

findingsAs a group, the newer generations of antiepileptic drugs have shown a more favorable drug interaction potential compared to the "classic" ones. A group of moderate enzyme-inducing drugs includes eslicarbazepine acetate, oxcarbazepine, rufinamide, and topiramate. These drugs are not as potent inducers as the "classic" drugs but may potentially decrease the serum concentrations of some antiretrovirals and immunosuppressants. Antiepileptic drugs with no or minimal enzyme-inducing properties include brivaracetam, gabapentin, lacosamide, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, perampanel, pregabalin, and vigabatrin. The newer generations of antiepileptic drugs have expanded the therapeutic options in patients with HIV infection or organ transplants.
