Interest in antibiotic pharmacokinetic modelling in the context of optimising dosing and reducing resistance: bibliometric analysis.
Article in Anaesthesiology intensive therapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionIn the era of problems with resistant bacteria strains, pharmacokinetic (PK) modelling offers ways to optimise antibiotic therapy and minimise the risk of resistance development. This bibliometric study aimed to investigate trends in PK modelling stu-dies. The goal was to provide researchers with comprehensive insight and identify future needs. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe used Bibliometrix, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace to analyse Web of Science articles on antibiotic PK modelling from 1983 to March 2023.
resultsWe analysed 968 papers following the inclusion criteria and built a keywords co-occurrence map and timeline. The average annual growth rate of subject-related publications was 35.56% between 1983 and 2022, maintaining a continuous upward trend. Roberts J.A., Lipman J., and Wallis S.C. are the three most productive and impactful authors (82, 57, 34 articles, and h-index of 30, 25, 15, respectively). The United States leads in this field of research (29.13% of papers). The most relevant affiliations are the University of Queensland, Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, and Monash University. The top three most productive and impactful journals are Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, and International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents (181, 83, 47 articles and h-index of 42, 30, 18, respectively). Most articles by keyword clustered on meropenem, vancomycin, and amikacin. Moreover, therapeutic drug monitoring, resistance, antibiotic dosing, target attainment, the intensive care unit, and paediatrics are the most trending aspects.
conclusionsGiven the results of this study, we expect to see a steady increase in interest in exploiting the potential of PK modelling for optimising antibiotic therapy.
