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

objectiveLinezolid is often used to treat antibacterial-resistant infections. Linezolid can cause side effects. To date, the effectiveness of the simultaneous administration of pyridoxine and linezolid is unclear. Here we investigate the protective effect of pyridoxine on linezolid-induced hematological toxicity, hepatotoxicity, and oxidative stress in rats. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe 40 male pediatric Spraque-Dawley rats were separated into 4 groups: control, linezolid, pyridoxine, and linezolid-pyridoxine. A complete blood count, liver function test, and measurements of antioxidant enzyme activities for superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and lipid peroxidation were performed in blood before treatment and 2 weeks after administration of the treatment.

resultsWhite blood cell and hemoglobin counts for the linezolid group decreased, and the alanine aminotransferase level in the linezolid group increased compared to their respective baseline values. Post-treatment white blood cell decreased in the linezolid and linezolid- pyridoxine groups compared to those in the control group (P < .001). Alanine aminotransferase levels increased in the linezolid and linezolid-pyridoxine groups compared to those in the control group (P < .001 and P < .05, respectively). The activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and malondialdehyde levels increased in the linezolid group compared to the control group (P < .001, P < .05, P < .001, and P < .001, respectively). Linezolid plus pyridoxine treatment caused a significant decrease in malondialdehyde levels and superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase enzyme activities compared to the linezolid group (P < .001, P < .01, P < .001, and P < .01, respectively).

conclusionPyridoxine may be an effective adjuvant agent for the prevention of linezolid toxicity in rat models.
