Risk factors of tigecycline-associated fibrinogen reduction in patients with renal transplantation: a case-control study.

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: Hypofibrinogenemia is a serious adverse reaction related to tigecycline administered against multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and can lead to therapy termination. High dose and prolonged tigecycline therapy, renal failure, and base level of fibrinogen (FIB) were reported risk factors of tigecycline-associated FIB reduction. But results are unknown in patients with renal transplantation. Methods: A single-center and a case-control study involving renal transplantation patients was conducted. From January, 2017 to January, 2020, patients with a tigecycline course more than 2 days and a baseline FIB level greater than 2 g/L were enrolled. Hypofibrinogenemia was defined as plasma FIB <2.0 g/L. The extent of FIB reduction was calculated based on the baseline of FIB level before tigecycline administration. FIBRO was defined as the extent of FIB reduction over 50%, and FIBRB referred to the extent of FIB reduction below 50%. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed by logistic regression models to identify independent risk factors of tigecycline-associated FIB reduction. Results: In total, 120 patients were enrolled. A total of 114 patients (95.00%) developed with hypofibrinogenaemia. Hypofibrinogenemia mainly occurred 3 days after tigecycline administration. Of them, 79 (65.83%) developed FIBRO with a median occurrence of 3 [2-4] days after initiation of tigecycline. Multivariable regression analysis demonstrated that the FIB level before tigecycline use [odds ratio (OR): 3.225, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.801-5.772] and total tigecycline dose (OR: 4.930, 95% CI: 1.433-16.959) were risk factors for FIBRO. Conclusions: The FIB level before tigecycline use and total tigecycline dose were significantly associated with FIBRO, suggesting that FIB level and coagulation-related indicators should be closely monitored during tigecycline treatment to avoid life-threatening bleeding events.
