Ceftaroline-Induced Thrombocytopenia: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Drug-induced thrombocytopenia is a rare but significant adverse effect of certain medications, with the potential for severe bleeding, thrombosis, and death. This report discusses a rare case of severe thrombocytopenia induced by ceftaroline in a 69-year-old male with a history of atrial fibrillation on rivaroxaban and allergies to amoxicillin and sulfa drugs. Following the initiation of ceftaroline for left lower extremity purulent cellulitis, his platelet count dropped from 204,000 to 4,000 x 10³/μL within a day. Given the low platelet levels, anticoagulation therapy, and bleeding risk, immediate interventions and prompt recognition prevented major complications, highlighting the importance of recognizing drug-induced thrombocytopenia in clinical practice.
