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

purposeThe role of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients receiving letermovir has not yet been clarified. This study is to explore letermovir trough concentration (C

methodsA prospective, non-interventional study was performed in allo-HSCT recipients receiving letermovir prophylaxis. Plasma concentrations were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Data analysis was performed using logistic regression, linear regression, and classification and regression tree (CART) models.

results701 trough concentrations from 71 recipients were included, uncovering pronounced intra- and inter-individual variability in letermovir C

conclusionTDM for letermovir may be beneficial in allo-HSCT recipients considering the variability in letermovir C
