Adverse reactions of vancomycin in humans: A protocol for meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundVancomycin is effective against Gram-positive bacteria and considered as a last resort in the case of ineffective use of other antigens. While due to the occurrence of adverse reactions, the application of vancomycin is strictly limited. We will conduct a meta-analysis to summarize adverse reactions of vancomycin in humans.
methodsTo collect comprehensive randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the following electronic databases will be searched: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and China Science and Technology Journal Database. The range of publication time will be from the inception of the database to August 2020 without language limitation. Two reviewers will independently conduct selection of studies, data extraction and management, and assessment of risk of bias. Any disagreement will be resolved by discussion with the third reviewer. Review Manager 5.3 (The Nordic Cochrane Centre, The Cochrane Collaboration) will be used for meta-analysis. The Cochrane risk of bias tool will be used to assess the risk of bias.
resultsThis study will synthesize the data from the present eligible high quality RCTs to explore the incidence of adverse reactions such as hypersensitivity reactions, nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, phlebitis, and agranulocytosis.
conclusionThis meta-analysis will provide systematic evidence for adverse reactions of vancomycin in humans. STUDY REGISTRATION NUMBER: INPLASY202080094.
