1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Clarithromycin extended-release (CLA-ER) was used as companion drug to rifampicin (RIF) for Mycobacterium ulcerans infection in the intervention arm of a WHO drug trial. RIF enhances CYP3A4 metabolism, thereby reducing CLA serum concentrations, and RIF concentrations might be increased by CLA co-administration. We studied the pharmacokinetics of CLA-ER at a daily dose of 15 mg/kg combined with RIF at a dose of 10 mg/kg in a subset of trial participants, and compared these to previously obtained pharmacokinetic data. Serial dried blood spot samples were obtained over a period of ten hours, and analyzed by LC-MS/MS in 30 study participants-20 in the RIF-CLA study arm, and 10 in the RIF-streptomycin study arm.
