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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveThe number of adults living with cystic fibrosis (CF) has increased and will continue to do so with the approval of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators. Because systemic aminoglycosides are commonly administered for CF pulmonary exacerbations, we sought to define optimized dosing regimens using a population pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation approach.
methodsAdult CF patients admitted for pulmonary exacerbation, receiving at least 72 h of systemic gentamicin, tobramycin, or amikacin, with measured concentrations were included. Covariates [e.g., age, weight, creatinine clearance (CRCL)] were screened. Population modeling was completed using Monolix, and simulations were conducted in R. Simulated exposures were calculated using noncompartmental analysis. Once-daily fixed (10 mg/kg) and exposure-matched dosing (i.e., 15, 10, 7.5, 6 mg/kg for ages 20, 30, 40, and 50 years, respectively) strategies were compared. First-24 h exposures were evaluated for each strategy according to the probability of target attainment (PTA) (ratio of peak plasma concentrations relative to the minimum inhibitory concentration [C
resultsForty-eight adult patients (55% female) were included. A one-compartment model best fit the data. Estimates for volume of distribution (V) and clearance (CL) were 22 l and 5.57 l/h, respectively. Weight significantly modified CL and V. Age significantly modified CL and was more influential than CRCL. PTA was > 90% at MICs ≤ 1 mg/l for fixed doses of 10 mg/kg and for exposure-matched doses at MIC ≤ 1 mg/l. Exposure-matched dosing reduced PTE roughly 50% in patients aged 40 and 50 years vs. fixed dosing.
conclusionsExposure-matching maintained PTA at MICs ≤ 1 mg/l while reducing toxicity risk in older patients compared to fixed dosing. Confirmatory studies are needed.
