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

backgroundThere are currently few data concerning the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) penetration of daptomycin in patients with healthcare-associated meningitis. This study aims (1) to better characterize the pharmacokinetics of daptomycin in humans during a 7-day intravenous (IV) therapy course, and (2) to study the penetration of daptomycin in the CSF after IV infusion at the dose of 10 mg/kg.

resultsIn this prospective observational study, we enrolled nine patients with an implanted external ventricular drainage and a diagnosis of a healthcare-associated meningitis. Daptomycin was administered at 10 mg/kg for a maximum of 7 days. The pharmacokinetic of daptomycin was studied using a two-compartment population/pharmacokinetic (POP/PK) model and by means of a nonlinear mixed effects modeling approach. A large inter-individual variability in plasma area under the curve (Range: 574.7-1366.3 h mg/L), paralleled by high-peak plasma concentration (C

conclusionsOur POP/PK model was able to describe the pharmacokinetics of daptomycin in both plasma and CSF, showing that daptomycin (up to 7 days at 10 mg/kg) has minimal penetration into central nervous system. Furthermore, the observed variability of AUC, t
