First case report of cefmetazole-induced disulfiram-like reaction.
Article in IDCases, 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
Disulfiram-like reactions occur when alcohol is consumed concurrently with certain drugs and can sometimes be fatal. Some cephalosporins such as cefoperazone could cause disulfiram-like reaction, known as cephalosporin-induced disulfiram-like reactions (CIDLRs). We describe a case of cefmetazole (CMZ)-treated CIDLR triggered by alcohol consumption. A 72-year-old Japanese man, treated with CMZ for perforated appendicitis and subsequent paralytic ileus, presented with skin flushing and chest discomfort, developing 30 min after consuming usual meals and alcohol. CIDLR was diagnosed due to recent use of CMZ and the symptoms alleviated without any medication. This is the first case report of a CMZ-induced disulfiram-like reaction.
