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

The incidence rate of tuberculosis (TB) in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is 26 times higher than that in other patients. Patients with both infections require long-term combination therapy, which increases therapy complexity and might lead to serious adverse reactions and drug-drug interactions. To optimize therapy for patients with HIV and TB coinfection, we developed an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method to simultaneously quantify four anti-tuberculosis drugs and one isoniazid (INH) metabolite. Blood samples (n = 32) from 16 patients with HIV and TB coinfection were collected. Plasma protein precipitation with acetonitrile was followed by a hydrazine reaction between INH and cinnamaldehyde (CA) to produce phenylhydrazone (CA-INH) and dilution with heptafluorobutyric acid. The separation was performed on an Acquity UHPLC HSS T3 1.8 μm column (2.1 × 100 mm, Waters) with a mobile phase consisting of 10 mmol/L ammonium formate (pH = 4) in water (solvent A) and 0.1 % formic acid in methanol (solvent B) in a gradient elution. The compounds were detected using a positive multiple reaction monitoring model. INH, acetyl-INH (AC-INH), rifampicin (RIF), ethambutol (EMB), and pyrazinamide (PZA) showed good linear relationships in their quantitative ranges, with lower limits of quantification of 48, 192, 200, 96, and 480 ng/mL, respectively. The inter- and intraday precision was within 15 %, and the accuracy was between 85 % and 115 %. The mean plasma concentrations of INH, AC-INH, RIF, EMB, and PZA in patients were 1990.23 (24-16 600), 863.06 (96-2880), 3507.05 (229-9800), 808.10 (149-2130), and 18 838.33 (240-34 800) ng/mL, respectively. The plasma concentrations detected in the 16 patients were lower than the targeted concentrations in HIV-negative TB patients. In summary, we developed a simple UHPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous quantification of first-line TB drugs, and successfully applied it for therapeutic drug monitoring in patients with HIV and TB coinfection. This method will facilitate monitoring of TB drugs in the future.
