Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Sputum Voriconazole in Pulmonary Aspergillosis.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Voriconazole is one of the most used antifungal azoles against pulmonary aspergillosis. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of the voriconazole concentration in plasma is recommended in clinical practice guidelines to prevent treatment failure and toxicity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and utility of TDM of the voriconazole concentration in the sputum of patients treated for pulmonary aspergillosis. Fifty sputum and 31 plasma samples were analysed with high-performance tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) in 24 patients included in the study. The voriconazole concentration was simultaneously assessed in the plasma and sputum in 22 samples. The correlation between the sputum and plasma levels was estimated with a univariate linear regression model, and the observed R
