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

objectiveWe report the first known case of Cushing syndrome and secondary adrenal insufficiency in a patient with concomitant use of epidural triamcinolone and Genvoya

methodsThe patient was evaluated by determining morning serum cortisol concentrations, the serum cortisol response to cosyntropin, and a urine synthetic glucocorticoid panel that is capable of measuring triamcinolone. We also employed the Naranjo Nomogram for Causality as well as a Drug Interaction Probability scale to assess medication-related adverse effects. Long term outcome was assessed by measuring morning serum cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone levels.

resultsA 76-year-old female with HIV on Genvoya

conclusionIt is essential to avoid drugs that include cobicistat when administering glucocorticoids that are metabolized via the CYP3A4 pathway due to the risk of developing Cushing syndrome and secondary adrenal insufficiency.
