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

Given the high prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR)-TB in high HIV burden settings, it is important to identify potential drug-drug interactions between MDR-TB treatment and widely used nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in HIV-positive children. Population pharmacokinetic models were developed for lamivudine (n = 54) and abacavir (n = 50) in 54 HIV-positive children established on NRTIs; 27 with MDR-TB (combinations of high-dose isoniazid, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, ethionamide, terizidone, fluoroquinolones, and amikacin), and 27 controls without TB. Two-compartment models with first-order elimination and transit compartment absorption described both lamivudine and abacavir pharmacokinetics, respectively. Allometric scaling with body weight adjusted for the effect of body size. Clearance was predicted to reach half its mature value
