Total and Unbound Pharmacokinetics of Cefiderocol in Critically Ill Patients.
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
backgroundCefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin antibiotic active against Gram-negative bacteria, including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and carbapenemase-producing strains. The pharmacokinetics of cefiderocol has been studied in healthy subjects and particularly in phase II and III studies. This retrospective study investigated intravenous cefiderocol population pharmacokinetics in adult patients treated by cefiderocol.
methodsWe studied 55 consecutive patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit. Cefiderocol plasma samples were obtained on different occasions during treatment. Plasma concentration was assayed using mass spectrometry. Data analysis was performed using a non-linear mixed-effect approach via Monolix 2020R1.
resultsA total of 205 plasma samples were obtained from 55 patients. Eighty percent of patients received cefiderocol for ventilator-associated pneumonia due to carbapenem-resistant
conclusionThis study showed that albumin binding and CKD effects were significant predictors of unbound and total plasma cefiderocol concentrations. Our results indicate that individual adjustment of cefiderocol can be used to reach high minimum inhibitory concentrations based on an estimation of unbound drug concentration and optimize therapeutic efficacy.
