Possible adverse events of imidazole antifungal drugs during treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis: analysis of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. 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
Azole antifungal drugs are commonly used to treat vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC). The nephrotoxicity and developmental toxicity of azole drugs have not been systematically analyzed in the real world. We used the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to investigate the adverse events (AEs) associated with imidazole therapy for VVC. FAERS data (from quarter 1 2004 to quarter 3 2022) were retrieved using OpenVigil 2.1, and AEs were retrieved and standardized according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). In the top 10 System Organ Class (SOC), all four drugs have been found to have kidney and urinary system diseases and pregnancy. We found significant signals, including clotrimazole [bladder transitional cell carcinoma, (report odds ratio, ROR = 291.66)], [fetal death, (ROR = 10.28)], ketoconazole[nephrogenic anemia (ROR = 22.1)], [premature rupture of membranes (ROR = 22.91 46.45, 11, 3)], Miconazole[hematuria (ROR = 19.03)], [neonatal sepsis (ROR = 123.71)], [spontaneous abortion (ROR = 5.98)], Econazole [acute kidney injury (ROR = 4.41)], [spontaneous abortion (ROR = 19.62)]. We also discovered new adverse reactions that were not reported. Therefore, when using imidazole drugs for treatment, it is necessary to closely monitor the patient's renal function, pay attention to the developmental toxicity of the fetus during pregnancy, and be aware of potential adverse reactions that may occur.
