Assessment of Antibiotic Pharmacokinetics, Molecular Biomarkers and Clinical Status in Critically Ill Adults Diagnosed with Community-Acquired Pneumonia and Receiving Intravenous Piperacillin/Tazobactam and Hydrocortisone over the First Five Days of Intensive Care: An Observational Study (STROBE Compliant).
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a condition that frequently requires intensive care and, eventually, can cause to death. Piperacillin/tazobactam antibiotic therapy is employed as an empiric intravenous regimen, in many cases supplemented with intravenous bolus hydrocortisone treatment. The individual and condition-dependent pharmacokinetic properties of these drugs may lead to therapeutic failure. The impact of systemic inflammation, as well as of hydrocortisone on the altered pharmacokinetics of piperacillin is largely unknown. The protocol of a clinical study aimed at the characterization of the pharmacokinetics of piperacillin and tazobactam and its association with the concentrations of inflammatory markers and adrenal steroids during CAP therapy will be investigated in up to 40 critically ill patients. The serum concentrations of piperacillin and tazobactam, cortisol, cortisone, corticosterone and 11-deoxycortisol and interleukin-6 levels, as well as routine clinical chemistry and hematology parameters will be monitored from the beginning of treatment for up to five days. Nonparametric population pharmacokinetic modeling and Monte-Carlo simulations will be performed to make estimates of the pharmacokinetics of piperacillin and tazobactam and the probability of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic target attainment. The observed individual characteristics and changes will be correlated with clinical and laboratory findings. The protocol of the observational study will be designed following the STROBE guideline.
