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

This exploratory study aimed to develop a risk prediction model of vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity (VANT) in elderly patients. Clinical information of elderly patients who received vancomycin therapy from January 2016 to June 2018 was retrieved. A total of 255 patients were included in this study. Univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that vancomycin trough concentration ≥ 20 mg/L (odds ratio (OR) = 3.009; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.345-6.732), surgery (OR = 3.357; 95% CI 1.309-8.605), the Charlson Comorbidities Index ≥ 4 points (OR = 2.604; 95% CI 1.172-5.787), concomitant use of cardiotonic drug (OR = 3.283; 95% CI 1.340-8.042), plasma volume expander (OR = 3.459; 95% CI 1.428-8.382), and piperacillin/tazobactam (OR = 2.547; 95% CI 1.680-6.007) were risk factors for VANT in elderly patients. Furthermore, a VANT risk prediction model was developed, which had good discriminative power and was well-calibrated.
