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

Current methods for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) have a long turnaround time as they involve collecting patients' blood samples followed by transferring the samples to medical laboratories where sample processing and analysis are performed. To enable real-time and minimally invasive TDM, a microneedle (MN) biosensor to monitor the levels of two important antibiotics, vancomycin (VAN) and gentamicin (GEN) is developed. The MN biosensor is composed of a hydrogel MN (HMN), and an aptamer-functionalized flexible (Flex) electrode, named HMN-Flex. The HMN extracts dermal interstitial fluid (ISF) and transfers it to the Flex electrode where sensing of the target antibiotics happens. The HMN-Flex performance is validated ex vivo using skin models as well as in vivo in live rat animal models. Data is leveraged from the HMN-Flex system to construct pharmacokinetic profiles for VAN and GEN and compare these profiles with conventional blood-based measurements. Additionally, to track pH and monitor patient's response during antibiotic treatment, an HMN is developed that employs a colorimetric method to detect changes in the pH, named HMN-pH assay, whose performance has been validated both in vitro and in vivo. Further, multiplexed antibiotic and pH detection is achieved by simultaneously employing the HMN-pH and HMN-Flex on live animals.
