In vivo Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics Profiles for Appropriate Doses of Cefditoren pivoxil against S. pneumoniae in Murine Lung-Infection Model.

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
purposeCefditoren, the active form of cefditoren pivoxil, is an oral cephalosporin antimicrobial drug. Although cefditoren exhibits high antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus pneumoniae, its pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) characteristics remain unknown. This study aimed to determine its PK/PD parameter with target values for cefditoren against S. pneumoniae in S. pneumoniae lung-infected mice and to simulate MIC range of S. pneumoniae that can be expected to be treated at approved cefditoren doses in human using population pharmacokinetic (PPK) data from patients.
methodsSusceptibility testing and time-kill assays against S. pneumoniae ATCC
resultsIn vitro PD evaluation showed that cefditoren had a potent antimicrobial effect against S. pneumoniae in a time-dependent manner at concentrations above the MIC. In PK/PD analyses, both fAUC
conclusionsCefditoren pivoxil has good therapeutic efficacy against acute pneumonia caused by S. pneumoniae with a MIC ≤ 0.031-0.063 mg/L at approved doses in adults and children.
