Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06590428 (Therapeutic Drug Monitoring for Linezolid in the Treatment of Rifampin-resistant Tuberculosis), which is not on this map. Cited by 24 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

The prolonged treatment duration for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) makes linezolid dosing difficult because of adverse effects associated with long-term use. We sought to find the optimal dosing regimen for linezolid across different MIC values. Pharmacokinetic (PK) data from TB patients were included from Brazil, Georgia, and two U.S. sites. Population PK modeling and simulation were performed. We used an
