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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveTigecycline, a broad-spectrum glycylcycline antibiotic, is approved for use at a fixed dose irrespective of body weight. However, its pharmacokinetics may be altered in obesity, which would impact on the antibiotic's effectiveness. The objective of this study was to investigate the plasma and subcutaneous tissue concentrations of tigecycline in obese patients compared with those in a non-obese control group.

methodsFifteen obese patients (one class II and 14 class III) undergoing bariatric surgery and 15 non-obese patients undergoing intra-abdominal surgery (mainly tumour resection) received a single dose of 50 or 100 mg tigecycline as an intravenous short infusion. Tigecycline concentrations were measured up to 8 h after dosing in plasma (total concentration), in ultrafiltrate of plasma (free concentration), and in microdialysate from subcutaneous tissue, respectively.

resultsIn obese patients, total peak plasma concentration (1.31 ± 0.50 vs 2.27 ± 1.40 mg/L) and the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 8 h (AUC

conclusionFollowing a single dose of tigecycline, concentrations in the ISF of subcutaneous adipose tissue are decreased in heavily obese subjects, calling for an increased loading dose. EU CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NUMBER: EudraCT No. 2012-004383-22.
