Cefepime-Induced Neutropenia: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Clinical pharmacology : advances and applications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cefepime is a fourth-generation cephalosporin utilized in treatment of multiple Gram-negative and -positive infections. The current report presents a case of 50-year-old man admitted with epidural abscess who developed neutropenia after prolonged use of cefepime. The neutropenia developed after 24 days of cefepime treatment and resolved 4 days after cessation of cefepime. Assessment of the patient's profile indicated no other possible cause for neutropenia. A literature review was done, and is presented herein to compare and identify the pattern of cefepime-induced neutropenia in 15 patients. The data presented in this article highlight that despite its rarity, cefepime-induced neutropenia should be considered by clinicians when planning a prolonged course of cefepime.
